Aanvullende informatie

Benedict XIV, elected in 1740 after a conclave that dragged on for six months, proved one of the more intellectually serious popes of the 18th century — a trained canon lawyer who corresponded with Voltaire and overhauled the Church's approach to missionary rites. His long pontificate gave the Roman mint ample time to refine working dies, and the small-leaf wreath variant of this baiocco is understood to represent a later die revision within the series, distinguishable from the larger-leaf emission by the tighter foliate spacing around the inscription.
