| Reverse description | A large ornate six-pointed cross dominates the reverse, its arms terminating in stylized fleur-de-lis motifs, with foliate branches bearing leaves filling each of the six angles between the arms. At the center of the cross, within a raised hexagonal panel, the Roman numeral 'X' appears above the legend 'DUCAT' in incuse lettering. The surrounding field carries a circumferential Latin legend divided between the upper and lower portions of the coin: 'AVORUM NON MORITURA VIRTUS' above and 'AUREUS MAGNUS' below, punctuated by small ornamental stops. |
