| Obverse description | Central shield bearing the arms of Camerlengo Cardinal Paluzzo Paluzzi Altieri degli Albertoni, displaying six eight-pointed stars arranged in two columns on a plain field. The shield is surmounted by the papal umbraculum (ombrellino) and flanked by the crossed keys of Saint Peter tied with a cord, all rendered in high relief within a finely beaded border. The legend SEDE٠VACANTE flanks the design to the left and right, while the Roman date numeral MDCLXXXXI appears across the upper field, denoting the vacancy of the Holy See in 1691. |
