| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bold Latin cross occupies the central field, dividing the reverse into four quadrants. In the first (upper left) quadrant, two small keys are depicted, referencing the apostolic authority of Saint Peter. The remaining quadrants are plain. A circular Latin legend reading SANCTVS PETRVS surrounds the cross, invoking Saint Peter as patron. The design is typical of the modest, functional style of hammered billon deniers struck for Comtat Venaissin under papal authority. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Innocent VIII inherited the Comtat Venaissin as part of the broader papal temporal holdings in southern France — a territory the papacy had controlled since 1274 following the Capetian suppression of the Albigensian-era counts of Toulouse. The Comtat issued its own coinage throughout the medieval period precisely because of this anomalous status: a French enclave under Roman ecclesiastical jurisdiction, surrounded by Angevin and later French royal territory, requiring local small change that acknowledged its separate overlordship.
At 0.61g in billon, this denier petit circulated at the lowest functional level of the regional monetary economy — the sort of coin handled daily and rarely saved.
