Reverse description Full-length standing figure of Saint Peter, the patron of Ancona, depicted facing slightly to the right, draped in long robes and holding a key in his right hand, the symbol of his apostolic authority. His left hand holds a book, likely representing the Gospels. The figure is rendered in a simplified, somewhat archaic style typical of hammered papal silver coinage of the sixteenth century. The surrounding legend reads S PETRVS ANCONA, identifying the saint and the issuing city.
