Reverse description Standing draped figure of Saint Paul facing slightly right, depicted as an elderly bearded apostle holding a sword upright in his right hand and a book (the Epistles) in his left — his standard iconographic attributes in Counter-Reformation papal coinage. To the lower left, the heraldic shield of the legate Ranuccio Farnese; to the lower right, a smaller shield bearing the arms of the city of Macerata. The surrounding legend reads ·MACER S· ·PAVLVS·, identifying the mint city of Macerata and the patron saint Paul. The rope border frames the composition at the rim.
