| Reverse description | A radiant sun with a face, emitting long rays, rises above a mountain or rocky ground. Multiple arrows shot upward from the ground fall back harmlessly, symbolizing the king's invulnerability. The circular legend SECVRVS . AB . ALTO surrounds the device, with no exergue text. The token was issued for the Galères Royales (Royal Galleys) administration. |
