| Reverse description | Three-line Latin devotional inscription DELICTA / OPERIT / CHARITAS — meaning 'Charity covers sins' (after Proverbs 10:12) — displayed in bold roman capital letters within an ornate baroque cartouche surmounted by a winged cherub head at the apex. The cartouche is formed by scrolling acanthus and strapwork ornaments, with a small papal arms shield at the base. The plain field within the cartouche gives prominence to the scriptural motto, characteristic of the pious reverse types issued under Clement XI. |
