| Obverse description | Quartered shield bearing the arms of Grand Master Pietro del Monte impaled with the arms of the Order of St. John (a plain cross), set within the field. The escutcheon is rendered in the heraldic hammered style typical of sixteenth-century Hospitaller coinage. A circular beaded inner border frames the design, with the Latin legend disposed around the periphery. |
