The Ace of Swords is a card used in Latin-suited playing cards (Italian, Spanish and tarot decks). It is the ace from the suit of swords. The card consists of a sword overtopped by a crown with which, depending on the side, an olive and a palm branch are present. These symbols represent mercy and severity.[1]
