| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field features the elaborate papal coat of arms of Pope Pius IX, comprising a quartered shield displaying diagonal bands and rampant lions, set within ornate baroque cartouche scrollwork. Above the shield, the papal tiara (triregnum) surmounts the crossed keys of Saint Peter, the traditional symbols of pontifical authority. A cherub head appears at the base of the crossed keys. The encircling legend reads PIVS·IX·PON·MAX·A·XIX·, denoting Pius IX, Supreme Pontiff, in his regnal year. The design is rendered in finely engraved relief with a beaded inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pio IX authorized this reduced-fineness silver issue as part of a broader reform of Papal coinage following the disruptions of the 1848–49 revolution, during which the Roman Republic had briefly seized control of the mint and struck its own competing currency. The .800 fineness was a concession to fiscal reality — the Papal treasury never fully recovered its footing after the French intervention restored temporal power.
The years spanned by this type bracket the final consolidation of Italian unification pressure on the Papal States, which lost the Romagna to Piedmont-Sardinia in 1860.
