| Reverse description | Full-length figure of Saint Peter standing facing, draped in classical robes, holding a large key in his lowered left hand and a book in his right hand, rendered in the Renaissance style characteristic of Roman papal coinage of the period. The saint is depicted with a bearded visage, and the figure occupies the majority of the coin's field. The surrounding circular Latin legend, punctuated by dot stops, identifies the subject and the issuing city. |
