Obverse description	Quartered coat of arms of Grand Master Jean de Vallette, combining the personal arms of the Vallette family (featuring a gyrfalcon and lion) with the eight-pointed cross of the Order of St. John, all set within the field. The heraldic shield is the central device, rendered in the style typical of hammered coinage of the period. The circumferential Latin legend surrounds the shield, identifying the Grand Master by name and title.
