| Beschrijving keerzijde | A single fish swims to the left in the central field, rendered in a stylised, naturalistic manner. The country name CITTA DEL VATICANO arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination L. 10 is inscribed along the lower periphery, both legends in clean Roman capitals. The design is austere and uncluttered, with the fish motif referencing early Christian ichthys symbolism. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Paul VI issued this aluminum series during the years immediately following the Second Vatican Council, a period of unusual institutional turbulence for the Holy See. The 1970 suppression of the Pontifical Noble Guard and the Papal Gendarmerie — both centuries-old corps — was announced the same year this series began, part of a broader restructuring that Paul himself found politically exhausting.
Aluminum coinage for the Vatican was a deliberate postwar continuity, the metal chosen for low-denomination issues to keep production costs negligible on coins that rarely circulated beyond collector sets anyway.
