| Obverse description | Central field bears the papal arms of Pius VI: a semi-oval pointed shield charged with flowering lilies (fleurs) on a vertigo-lined ground, surmounted by the triple tiara and crossed keys in saltire with elaborate foliate mantling. The pontifical insignia are rendered in fine relief, with the tiara prominently displayed at the apex. The circular legend reads PIVS SEXT P M A XXIII, distributed around the field, identifying the issuer as Pius the Sixth, Supreme Pontiff, in the twenty-third year of his reign. The coin features a boldly milled outer border of vertical reeds. |
