| Obverse description | Draped bust of Grand Master Manuel Pinto de Fonseca facing left, rendered in high relief with elaborate flowing wig falling to the shoulders in the Baroque manner. The portrait is boldly modelled, depicting the Grand Master in ornate armour with decorative detailing at the collar. The circumferential Latin legend reads E·EMMANVEL PINTO·M·M·HSS, distributed around the bust within a toothed border. The field is smooth and unadorned, allowing the portrait to dominate the design. |
