| Reverse description | The reverse depicts Saint Peter, nimbed and seated on a throne, robed in flowing drapery, extending his right hand in blessing toward a kneeling figure of Pope Paul II shown in papal vestments at lower left. The scene of the pope receiving the keys or blessing from the Apostle is rendered in bold hammered relief. A beaded inner circle frames the composition, while the peripheral Latin legend ACCIPE CLA RE CELOR, an abbreviation of 'Accipe claves regni caelorum' (Receive the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven), encircles the design with decorative stops between words. |
