| Obverse description | The obverse bears no effigy, featuring instead a four-line Latin inscription in bold Roman capitals arranged within the field: PIVS / PAPA VI / AN· / XXIII, denoting Pope Pius VI in the twenty-third year of his pontificate. The legend is enclosed within a wreath of olive or laurel branches that encircles the entire field, with the wreath tied at the base. A toothed or milled border runs along the outer rim. The design is typical of late eighteenth-century Papal copper coinage, prioritizing textual identification over portraiture. |
