| Obverse description | Crowned quartered shield of arms occupying the central field, displaying the cross of the Order of St. John alongside the personal arms of Grand Master Jean de la Cassière, supported by a rampant lion to the right. The shield is rendered in a Renaissance heraldic style typical of Hospitaller coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the device, interrupted by a cross patée at the top. The coin's irregular flan, characteristic of hammered production, is bordered by a beaded inner circle. |
