| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed, high-relief depiction of Jesus Christ rendered in the manner of a Gothic rose window. The central figure of Christ stands in a frontal pose, draped in flowing robes, with his right hand raised in a gesture of benediction and his left hand held to his chest; a nimbus encircles his head. Behind him, a large symmetrical tracery of radiating spokes and trefoil lobes fills the field, evoking the aesthetic of a medieval stained-glass window, with stylised cloud motifs adorning the intersections along the outer border. The Chi-Rho Christogram (☧) is inscribed in the right field of the design. No peripheral legend appears on this side. |
