| Obverse description | The obverse features the papal coat of arms of Benedict XIV, displayed as a vertically striped escutcheon surmounted by the papal tiara and crossed keys, all rendered in relief within the coin's field. The shield is flanked on either side by the encircling legend. The design is executed in a baroque style characteristic of mid-18th century Papal coinage, with fine detail in the rendering of the tiara and the interlaced keys. The legend reads BENED·XIV PON·M·A·XI, identifying the pontiff as Benedict XIV in the eleventh year of his pontificate. The coin's border is formed by a toothed or milled rim. |
