| Reverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, the full-length standing figure of Saint Martin is depicted facing forward, vested in episcopal robes and mitre, holding a crozier in his left hand and raising his right hand in blessing. The date 1589 appears in the field flanking the saint's head, divided by the figure, with the denomination value implied by the type. The surrounding Latin legend naming the patron saint runs continuously around the inner circle. |
