| Reverse description | Seated figure of Saint Paul facing left, rendered in a classicizing style, holding a long sword upright in his right hand and resting his left hand upon a closed book, emblematic of his role as Apostle and author of the Epistles. The saint is depicted with a long flowing beard and robes, seated on a low bench or throne, with the composition occupying the full field of the coin. The surrounding legend S PAVLVS ALMA ROMA is distributed around the periphery, invoking Saint Paul as the patron of the Eternal City. The reverse design reflects the high artistic quality associated with the Rome Mint under Paul V and the engraving work of Gaspare Mola. The field is plain, with the bold figural composition providing the primary decorative element. |
