| Beschrijving voorzijde | Standing full-length figure of Saint Peter at left, nimbed and draped in flowing robes, raising his right hand in benediction and holding a long staff or sceptre in his left hand. To his right stands a kneeling crowned senator, also in robes, receiving the staff and rendered in a devotional posture. The design is executed in the Gothic hammered style, with the two figures separated by a vertical line. The circular Latin legend reads S PETRVS ATOR VRBIS SEn, identifying Saint Peter as Senator of the City, distributed around the beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Roman Senate's ducato issues of this period were produced in deliberate imitation of the Venetian ducat — then the dominant gold trade coin of the Mediterranean — as part of the Senate's ongoing effort to assert civil authority over Rome independently of both the papacy and foreign powers. The Senate had reclaimed direct administrative control of the city in the mid-fourteenth century, and coinage was an explicit instrument of that claim. These pieces circulated alongside pontifical issues in an uneasy monetary coexistence that reflected the broader political fragmentation of the Italian peninsula.
