| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field displays the denomination 1 LIRA in two lines, with the date 1866 below, all enclosed within a finely detailed wreath composed of oak and olive branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The mint mark R (for Rome) appears at the very base of the wreath below the ribbon. The circular legend STATO PONTIFICIO, separated by five-pointed stars, runs around the periphery of the wreath, identifying the issuing state as the Pontifical State. The design is framed by a toothed border consistent with the obverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
By 1866, Pius IX had already lost the Romagna, Umbria, and the Marches to Piedmont-Sardinia in 1860, leaving the Papal States reduced to Lazio and a thin strip of territory defended only by French troops. This coin was struck at Rome in that diminished, embattled condition — a papacy minting silver not from confidence but from the practical necessity of maintaining a functioning economy in a state that most of Europe had already written off. The French garrison withdrew in 1866 under the terms of the September Convention, briefly leaving Rome exposed before diplomatic pressure forced their return.
