| Reverse description | Central device depicts two clasped hands, symbolizing faith and fraternal trust, set within a beaded inner circle. The date 1619 appears prominently above the clasped hands in the upper field, with the denomination mark T·I (Tari 1) below. Star-shaped ornaments punctuate the legend between words. The reverse legend, separated from the central motif by a beaded ring, carries the Order's celebrated motto. The composition is characteristic of the austere, symbolic iconography favored on the copper coinage of the Knights Hospitaller. |
