| Reverse description | Two full-length standing figures of the apostles Saints Peter and Andrew face one another in the central field, with radiating glory emanating from above between them. Saint Peter, draped in classical robes and nimbed, stands to the left holding the keys of heaven. Saint Andrew, semi-draped and nimbed, stands to the right leaning on his distinctive X-shaped cross. Between the two figures at their feet rests the small papal arms. The date 1786 appears in the exergue below, flanked by the divided legend SANCTVS·PETRVS·SANCTVS·ANDREAS distributed around the full circumference. |
