| Reverse description | Full-length standing figure of Saint Peter the Apostle, depicted facing, wearing long ecclesiastical robes and holding the keys of heaven in his right hand, a common iconographic attribute on Papal coinage. The figure is rendered in a flat, linear style consistent with mid-sixteenth-century hammered billon issues of the Roman mint. The circular legend S PETRVS ALMA ROMA surrounds the figure, identifying the saint and invoking Rome as the nurturing city. The overall design reflects the devotional and civic imagery characteristic of Paul III's coinage. |
