| Obverse description | The papal arms of Clement XIV displayed prominently in the center of the field, consisting of a crowned shield bearing the Ganganelli family device, surmounted by the papal tiara and crossed keys of Saint Peter. The heraldic composition is rendered in an elaborate Baroque style with ornate scrollwork flanking the escutcheon. The circular legend CLEM XIV PONT M A III runs along the coin's periphery, denoting the pope's name, title, and regnal year. The reeded border frames the design neatly. The engraving is attributed to the Hamerani workshop, characteristic of their refined Roman die-cutting tradition. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a central tablet inscription VN CARLINO ROMANO arranged in three lines across the field, with the date 1771 below, flanked by small stars. The denomination text is enclosed within an ornate Baroque cartouche of scrolling foliage and acanthus-style flourishes, characteristic of late 18th-century Roman papal coinage. A small star or rosette appears beneath the date at the base of the composition. The reeded border surrounds the entire design. The overall layout is typical of the Hamerani atelier's elegant and legible reverse designs for Papal States coinage. |
