| Reverse description | A radiant dove of the Holy Spirit, wings spread wide in flight, depicted in high relief at the centre of an elaborate glory of diverging rays that fill the entire field. Below the dove, a small papal coat of arms is set upon a decorative base. The circular legend NON·VOS·RELINQVAM·ORPHANOS· (I will not leave you orphans — John 14:18) encircles the composition, referencing the spiritual continuity of the Church during the interregnum. The overall composition is finely engraved in the baroque style, with the reeded border clearly visible. |
