| Reverse description | Two crossed laurel and olive branches forming a wreath enclose a three-line Latin inscription DE LVTO FAECIS in the central field, with the date 1738 positioned in the lower portion of the wreath. The motto, meaning 'from the mud of the dregs,' is a pontifical device alluding to spiritual elevation. The wreath is tied at the base with a ribbon and surmounted by a small floral ornament at the apex. The overall design is bold and well-centered within a milled border. |
