| Reverse description | A large, highly detailed facing portrait of Jesus of Nazareth dominates the field in ultra-high relief, rendered in an artistic style reminiscent of Renaissance devotional imagery. His long flowing hair and beard are finely detailed, and he wears a crown of thorns upon his head. The surrounding field is richly ornamented with elaborate foliate scrollwork, clusters of fruit, and figural scenes including angelic or supplicating figures in the lower left and right periphery. The inscription JESUS NAZARENUS is rendered in flowing italic script across the lower central field, with the Roman numeral date MMXIIII inscribed beneath in smaller characters. The antiqued finish accentuates the extraordinary depth and artistry of the high-relief design. |
