Reverse description The reverse presents a bold, typographic design with the denomination inscription arranged in three lines across the central field, reading OTTO / BAIOC / CHI, spelling out 'OTTO BAIOCCHI' (Eight Baiocchi). The lettering is large and deeply struck in a sans-serif style characteristic of Papal States coinage of the period, occupying nearly the full diameter of the coin within a plain inner border. The surrounding rim is defined by a prominent milled edge, with no additional decorative devices or legends in the field. The stark, purely textual reverse reflects the functional utilitarian character of this circulating denomination.
