| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device consists of the papal arms of Benedict XIV — a vertically striped escutcheon of the Lambertini family — surmounted by the papal tiara and crossed keys, flanked by elaborate foliate and floral branches. The papal insignia is rendered in fine relief with delicate rococo scrollwork. The circumferential legend is divided on either side of the shield, reading BENEDICT· to the left and ·XIV· P·M·A·(regnal year) to the right, separated by decorative stops. The coin's border is formed by a continuous inner beaded circle against a plain field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Benedict XIV — Prospero Lambertini — was among the most intellectually engaged popes of the eighteenth century, corresponding openly with Voltaire and pushing through a quiet reform of the Church's approach to usury that had direct implications for how papal finances were managed. The DISPERSIT DEDIT PAVPERIBVS legend, drawn from Psalm 112, was a deliberate choice: Benedict made poor relief a visible priority of his pontificate and used coinage as one vehicle for that message.
The Munt#56-60 range reflects minor die variations across the two-year emission — not unusual for Rome's mint during this period, where punch preparation was inconsistent.
