In the roundel at its center St. Anthony stands tonsured and in the Franciscan habit, the Christ Child on one arm and a spray of lilies in the other, the two attributes by which he has always been known. Lilies grow again from each of the four arms, the IHS monogram sits in a sunburst above, and an anchor bearing a cross rests on rock at the foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe lettering is unusually full for a cross this size.
