| Reverse description | A detailed high-relief scene depicts the opening session of the First Vatican Council of 1869, set within a grand basilica interior with radiating sunbeams emanating from above. Pope Pius IX is shown enthroned at the centre, surrounded by a multitude of assembled bishops and clergy arranged in tiered seating on either side. The name PIUS IX appears in the exergue on a raised tablet at the base of the central composition. The surrounding legend reads 1929 · 80 YEARS OF VATICAN CITY STATE · 2009 along the upper border, with OPENING OF THE FIRST VATICAN COUNCIL 1869 inscribed on a curved band within the field, and THE ROMAN QUESTION 1861–1929 along the lower border. |
