Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse presents a radiant Holy Spirit dove descending from above amid billowing clouds, emitting rays of divine light extending across the entire field in a dramatic baroque composition. Below the dove, at the lower center, appears the papal tiara flanked by the crossed keys, serving as the emblem of the Apostolic Camera. The legend DOCERIT · ET SVCCERET is distributed along the upper arc, while the mint name ROMA is inscribed at the lower field, divided by the central emblem. A finely milled border frames the design. The imagery alludes to the guidance of the Holy Spirit during the interregnum period of the Sede Vacante.

Aanvullende informatie

Sede Vacante coinage was struck by the Apostolic Camera — the body of cardinals managing Church affairs between pontificates — during the interregnum following Innocent XI's death in August 1689. The 1691 date places this testone within the vacancy preceding the election of Innocent XII, one of the longer conclaves of the late seventeenth century, running from February to July 1691 as factions deadlocked over candidates. These issues were deliberately temporary, struck only to maintain continuity of papal monetary authority during the gap.

The Apostolic Camera had exclusive minting rights during vacancies — a privilege jealously guarded and occasionally disputed by secular creditors of the Holy See.
