| Reverse description | A seated allegorical figure of Charity (Caritas), rendered in a serene neoclassical style, occupies the central field. The matronly figure is shown enthroned, cradling an infant in her left arm while two young children attend at her sides. The legend STATO DELLA CITTA DEL VATICANO arcs around the upper portion of the field, and the denomination L. 10 is inscribed in the lower field alongside the date. The composition is contained within a plain, unadorned field, emphasising the sculptural quality of the design. |
