| Reverse description | Central design features the Cross of the Military Order of Christ — a broad, patée-ended cross with pointed terminals — occupying the majority of the field. A large five-petalled rose or quatrefoil floral ornament is placed in each of the four quadrants formed by the arms of the cross. The encircling Latin legend 'IN * HOC * SIGNO * VINCES' is separated by small floral stops and runs along the full periphery between raised rims, referencing the Constantinian motto 'In this sign thou shalt conquer'. |
