| Obverse description | Central field displays the papal coat of arms of Clement XII (Lorenzo Corsini), rendered as a baroque shield bearing diagonal stripes (paly) surmounted by the papal tiara and crossed keys of Saint Peter, all set within elaborate acanthus scrollwork. The shield is depicted in high relief with pronounced baroque ornamental mantling flanking both sides. The circular legend reads CLEM·XII P·M·AN·III, identifying the pontiff as Clement XII, Pontifex Maximus, in the third year of his reign. The coin's milled border frames the design with a finely executed reeded edge. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a four-line Latin scriptural inscription, VÆ·VOBIS / QVI / SATVRATI / ESTIS (Woe to you who are full, Luke 6:25), set within an ornate baroque cartouche framed by elaborate scrollwork and foliate flourishes. A small crowned escutcheon, likely a mint or privy mark, appears at the base of the cartouche below the text. Decorative acanthus scroll ornaments occupy the upper portion of the field, integrating harmoniously with the cartouche surround. The reeded border encircles the entire design. |
