Papal States - Vatican copper baiocco, 1851
Diameter 29mm
The obverse features the coat of arms of Pope Pius IX - a shield bearing the arms of Pius IX underneath the crossed keys and papal crown of the arms of the Holy See. The abbreviated Latin inscription reads, 'PIUS IX. PONT. MAX. ANNO. V', meaning 'Pope Pius IX, year five'. The reverse features the denomination above the date. These appear within a wreath which is tied at the base with a bow. The mintmark should be below the date but is obscured on this example.
