| Obverse description | Left-facing bust of Pope Pius IX wearing the papal zucchetto (skullcap) and richly embroidered pontifical vestments, including a decorated cope adorned with a radiant sunburst motif and foliate ornamentation. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detail in the hair and drapery, characteristic of Cerbara's engraving style. The circumferential legend reads PIVS·IX·PONT·MAX· to the left and ·AN·VII· to the right, denoting the seventh year of his pontificate. The field is plain, and the coin is bordered by a finely toothed inner rim. |
