| Obverse description | Central shield bearing the quartered arms of Grand Master Jean de la Cassière — the lion passant of his personal arms impaled with the eight-pointed cross of the Order of St. John — set within a beaded inner circle. The heraldic composition is rendered in the bold, slightly rough style characteristic of Maltese hammered coinage of the sixteenth century. A circular Latin legend runs between the inner and outer beaded borders, naming the Grand Master and his office. |
