| Reverse description | Full-length frontal figure of Saint Peter, patron saint of Hamburg, depicted in flowing ecclesiastical robes standing upon a plinth or corbel, his right hand raised in benediction and his left hand holding the key, the symbol of his apostolic authority. The figure is rendered in the Gothic style typical of Rhenish and northern German goldgulden of the early 15th century, with drapery folds carefully articulated. A beaded inner circle frames the central image, beyond which the circumferential legend in Gothic uncial script reads MOnET nO HAMBVRGE, identifying this as a new coin of Hamburg. Pellet stops punctuate the legend at intervals. |
