| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents the denomination inscription in four bold lines across the central field, reading VN / BAIOCCO / ROM· / 1740, indicating one Roman baiocco struck at the Rome Mint. The lettering is framed by an elaborate Baroque cartouche of scrolling acanthus foliage and volutes, enclosing the text in a decorative manner characteristic of mid-eighteenth-century papal copper coinage. A mintmaster's mark appears at the base of the cartouche. The overall composition is spare and legible, with the denomination taking clear precedence over decorative elements. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Annibale Albani served as Camerlengo of the Holy Roman Church during the sede vacante following the death of Clement XII in February 1740, giving him the authority to issue coinage in the interim period before a new pope was elected. That conclave ran an unusually long six months, ending only in August with the election of Benedict XIV — meaning Albani's sede vacante issues circulated far longer than most interregnum coinage.
The extended vacancy gave the mint ample time to produce this type in quantity, which partly explains its relative accessibility today compared to shorter sede vacante issues from the same century.
