| Reverse description | Full-length figure of the Virgin Mary stands facing, draped in a flowing mantle, her hands clasped before her in prayer. A halo of stars crowns her head, and she stands upon a crescent moon resting on a globe, evoking the Immaculate Conception iconography. The denomination LIRE 1 appears to the lower left, while the circular legend STATO DELLA CITTA DEL VATICANO runs along the upper periphery. The engraver's signatures MISTRUZZI and MOTTI·INC· are inscribed in small lettering at the base of the design. |
