| Beschrijving voorzijde | The note is set within a hatched rectangular border with a zigzag pattern. At the top centre, the republican motto is printed in two lines, flanked by two circular medallion vignettes: on the left, a standing female figure with the legend REPUBBLICA ROMANA, and on the right, a similar allegorical figure with the legend FEDE PUBLICA. A central eagle vignette with spread wings is positioned below the heading, above a cartouche inscribed with the denomination P. SETTE. The main text body in letterpress type states the assignat value of seven Paoli, mortgaged against ecclesiastical enfiteuthic properties under Article X of Law 23 of Fruttifero Year Six, followed by a manuscript payee line and an autograph signature. |

The Roman Republic of 1798 was a French-backed revolutionary state that lasted barely seventeen months before papal authority was restored. These assignat-style notes were issued almost immediately upon the republic's proclamation, with the intent of funding an administration that had no established tax base and no bullion reserve. The 7 paoli denomination is an odd one — it appears designed to fill a specific transactional gap rather than conform to any tidy decimal scheme, reflecting the hybrid monetary arithmetic of a society still anchored to the old papal paoli system.
Printed locally under severely constrained conditions, the paper quality varies considerably across surviving examples.
