Reverse description Standing full-length figure of Saint John the Baptist, depicted facing forward in a hirsute garment of camel skin, his right hand raised in a gesture of blessing and his left hand holding a long cross-staff. To the left of the figure, a crown appears in the field — a distinctive addition associated with Joanna I's issues. The saint is rendered in the conventional Florentine florin style, with fine drapery detail and a beaded inner border. The circular Latin legend naming Saint John the Baptist runs around the periphery, separated from the figure by the beaded border.
