| Obverse lettering | INNOCEN•XII PONT•M•A•IIII |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a standing allegorical female figure personifying Charity, depicted in a dynamic Baroque contrapposto pose facing left, holding a torch aloft in her raised right hand and a cornucopia or bag of alms in her left arm, with a small child at her side. To the lower right appears a small papal shield or mint mark cartouche. The field to the right is open. The date 1694 is inscribed in the exergue at the base, and the Latin legend EGENO ET PAVPERI — meaning 'for the needy and the poor,' a motto emblematic of Innocent XII's charitable pontificate — runs along the outer border, separated by a beaded inner circle. |
