| Obverse description | Left-facing draped bust of Pope Clement XI wearing the papal camauro and embroidered cope adorned with a cross pattée, rendered in high relief in the Baroque style. The portrait is finely detailed, with curled hair visible beneath the camauro and elaborate lace trim at the collar. The circular Latin legend CLEMENS * XI * * P * M * A * X surrounds the effigy, divided by asterisk stops, with the regnal year indicator H appearing at the lower right of the field. A decorative milled border frames the entire obverse. |

| Reverse description | Central field bears a four-line Latin inscription REDDE / PROXIMO / IN • TEMPORE / SVO, meaning 'Render unto thy neighbour in his time,' taken from Ecclesiasticus 29:2. The text is enclosed within an elaborate Baroque cartouche of scrolling acanthus foliage surmounted by a cherub's head at the top. At the base of the composition, the papal arms of Clement XI — the Albani family shield surmounted by the papal tiara and crossed keys — are displayed in low relief. A finely milled border runs along the coin's periphery. |
