| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features the papal arms of Gregory XVI — a quartered shield displaying the Cappellari family coat of arms — surmounted by the papal tiara (triregnum) and flanked by the crossed keys of Saint Peter, the symbols of pontifical authority. The shield is elaborately rendered with fine engraving, supported by decorative scrollwork on either side. The circular Latin legend reading GREGORIVS XVI PONT MAX runs along the upper periphery, with the regnal year in Roman numerals and the mint letter positioned in the lower field flanking the shield. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gregorio XVI inherited a Papal States treasury gutted by Napoleonic occupation and never fully recovered it. His reign saw two serious revolts — 1831 and 1845 — both suppressed only with Austrian military intervention, and his government's chronic insolvency meant even small copper issues like this quattrino were struck intermittently across nearly a decade rather than in planned annual runs. The Vatican's reliance on foreign bayonets to hold its temporal territory made the continued minting of civic coinage something of a political performance as much as an economic function.
