| Obverse description | Armored bust of Grand Master Fra Emmanuel Pinto de Fonseca facing right, wearing a full-bottomed curled wig and plate armor with decorative pauldrons and gorget, rendered in high relief. The effigy is boldly modeled in the Baroque style, occupying the majority of the field. The circumferential legend in Latin runs around the periphery, interrupted by dots used as word separators. The date 1765 appears in the exergue below the truncation. |
