Reverse description A bold ornate cross in high relief dominates the entire reverse field, its four arms elaborately decorated with beaded and foliate baroque ornamentation terminating in fleur-de-lis-style finials. A central medallion displays the Christogram IHS within a circular border. The two-part motto POST TENEBRAS LUX — the motto of the Genevan Reformation — is inscribed in the angles between the arms of the cross, reading continuously around the field, with the coin's toothed border encircling the entire design.
