Reverse description Allegorical figure of the Holy Church personified as a seated female figure, rendered in the Mannerist style typical of late sixteenth-century papal coinage. The figure holds the keys of Saint Peter in her left hand, a symbol of ecclesiastical authority, while her right arm embraces a temple or church building, signifying the unity and consolidation of religious institutions. The exergue and surrounding field carry the Latin legend denoting Rome as the issuing authority.
