| Reverse description | Saint Peter, nimbed and draped, is depicted standing to the left within a boat on stylized waves, actively casting a fishing net into the water, an allusion to his role as fisherman and apostle. The figure is rendered with expressive drapery in a bold Renaissance style, the boat's hull and the undulating sea rendered in fine detail characteristic of early sixteenth-century papal coinage. The scene is enclosed within a raised inner circle, with the circular legend surrounding it along the outer border, divided by decorative stops, and framed by a beaded rim. |
