Is this bronze or copper? An earth magnet is not attracted to it at all. Any idea how old it is? It is 5.75" tall & weighs 14oz.

Could also be plated spelter.
kwqd may well be right.
Saint Peter seated on his throne holding the Keys of Heaven.
Your statue is a Copy of the original statue that is possibly made by Arnolfo di Cambio at the end of the 13th century.
This statue is located in the Vatican Basilica in Rome.
@kwqd I think you're right. Its smells & looks like copper. But its silver in color underneath the copper colored layer. Its likely copper plated spelter. Thank you.
@mp.kunst Yes, it appears to be copper plated spelter.
Thank you for the information.
