The shield is set within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by a circular Latin legend in the field. The coin displays the characteristic irregular flan and bold relief typical of hammered silver coinage of the mid-sixteenth century.

Aanvullende informatie

Juan de Homedes served as Grand Master from 1536 to 1553, presiding over the Order at a moment of acute Ottoman pressure following the loss of Rhodes in 1522 and the failed siege of Malta in 1551 — just one year before this coin was struck. The 4 Tari was the principal silver denomination of Hospitaller coinage throughout the sixteenth century, minted at Birgu, where the Order had established its operations after relocating from Rhodes.

Restelli #5 is among the scarcer documented varieties of Homedes's silver issues.
