Reverse description Standing full-length figure of St. John the Baptist at center, clad in a camel-skin garment, holding a tall staff topped by a banner of the Order in his left hand, his right hand extended downward toward a lamb recumbent at his feet. The composition references the patron saint of the Order in a classical Baroque engraving style. The denomination S·X appears in the exergue below a ground line. The surrounding legend NON SVRREXIT·MAIOR, a scriptural reference to John the Baptist (Matthew 11:11), arcs around the upper field.
