| Beschrijving keerzijde | Within a raised inner circle, the severed head of Saint John the Baptist shown in three-quarter view, resting upon a paten with flowing hair rendered in fine linear detail, characteristic of late 16th-century Maltese hammered coinage. The composition is bold and devotional in character, consistent with the iconographic tradition of the Order of St. John. The peripheral Latin legend is separated by a crosslet and ornamental stops, encircling the central motif. |

Hugues Loubenx de Verdala was appointed Grand Master in 1581 and spent much of his tenure more interested in personal advancement than military affairs — he lobbied successfully for a cardinal's hat in 1586, an unusual distinction for a Grand Master still nominally leading a crusading order. The 4 Tari was the Order's principal silver denomination, and issues under Verdala are among the scarcer Grand Mastership series of the late sixteenth century, reflecting both his abbreviated productive reign and the Order's increasingly administrative rather than military character by this period.
