4 Innocent XII 1699 Half Piastre M 28
An amazingly frank portrait of this elderly and ailing pope who died the next year.  The reverse features Noah's ark landing on Mt Ararat with water gushing out from below as it makes landfall.  The reverse translates " His place is made in peace" and is an abbreviation of Ps 75:5.
