| Obverse description | A crucifix mounted on a tiered pedestal above a basin, with two arcing streams of blood flowing from the wounds of Christ — one into a pitcher at lower left and the other into a chalice at lower right. Above the cross, a radiant Holy Spirit dove is depicted in high relief. The circular legend runs along the inner border of the reeded edge. |
