Commentary
Comme de nombreuses monnaies papales portant l’effigie du pape, cette monnaie a été montée. C’était souvent le cas des pèlerins qui souhaitaient à leur retour de Rome ramener une image du pape en souvenir.
Like many papal coins bearing the image of the Pope, this coin was mounted. This was often the case for pilgrims who, upon returning from Rome, wished to bring back an image of the Pope as a souvenir.

Historical background
ITALY - PAPAL STATES - INNOCENT XI (Benedetto Odescalchi)
(21/09/1676-12/08/1689)
Benedict Odescalchi was born in Como in 1611. He was elected and consecrated pope in Rome under the name of Innocent XI. On numerous occasions, he opposed Louis XIV, who ended up seizing the Comtat Venaissin. His pontificate was quite austere and he gave several laws against the luxury of Roman ladies. He died in Rome on August 12, 1689.
