背面描述	The reverse displays a vivid colorized panoramic view of St. Peter's Square and Basilica in Vatican City, with the Egyptian obelisk prominently centered in the foreground and Bernini's colonnades extending to either side. The architectural rendering is executed in warm sepia tones against the polished field, creating a striking chromatic effect. The upper legend reads 80 YEARS OF VATICAN CITY STATE, with the secondary legend THE END OF THE PAPAL STATE 1870 arcing within the inner border. The dates 1929 and 2009 flank the central image at left and right respectively, and the lower legend THE ROMAN QUESTION 1861-1929 completes the commemorative inscription along the bottom periphery.

附加信息	In September 1870, Italian Bersaglieri troops breached the Aurelian Wall at Porta Pia, ending over a thousand years of direct papal territorial rule. Pius IX refused to recognize the new Italian state and confined himself to the Vatican, where he and his successors remained self-declared prisoners until the Lateran Treaty of 1929. Palau, which has issued commemorative dollars on almost every conceivable historical subject since the late 1990s, added this episode to its catalog in 2009 — nearly 140 years after the breach.
