The shield is surmounted by the papal tiara and crossed keys, rendered in fine Baroque relief. The circular Latin legend reads PONT MAX ALEXAN VIII, separated by small dots, running along the raised inner border, with the coin's edge exhibiting a milled or reeded rim.

Aanvullende informatie

Alexander VIII — Pietro Ottoboni — was elected in 1689 at the age of seventy-nine, and his pontificate lasted barely two years. Despite that brevity, he managed to alienate Louis XIV, reverse several of Innocent XI's anti-nepotism measures almost immediately, and stuff his Venetian relatives into every available curial office. The Doppia was the prestige gold issue of the papal mints, and the 1690 date places this squarely in the single full calendar year of his reign.
