| Reverse description | A prominent baroque polygonal cartouche with elaborate scrollwork and foliate ornamentation at each corner dominates the reverse field. Within the cartouche, the three-line Latin inscription NOCET / MINVS / 1685 is rendered in bold capital letters, with the date appearing on the lowest line. The cartouche is framed by a milled border. The motto, a personal device of Innocent XI, alludes to the lesser harm wrought by virtue in contrast to vice. |
