| Reverse description | Archangel Michael shown in full figure advancing to the left, brandishing a flaming sword aloft in his right hand and bearing a shield in his left, clad in a feathered helmet and full plate armour in the late Baroque manner. Beneath his feet, the vanquished devil crouches in subjugation, exhaling smoke, with flames rising behind him. The scene is rendered in high relief with vigorous Baroque detail. The circumferential legend in Latin appears around the field, and the motto QVIS UT DEVS is prominently displayed. |
