Peter would have been in his mid 60s when he died. The Catholic Church has taught the tradition of Saint Peter dying in Rome by crucifixion for nearly 2000 years and there is evidence to support this in The Bible itself. It is impossible to give a precise age since neither the date of Peter's birth nor of his death are known. He was probably born sometime around AD1 and died during the persecutions of Nero between 64 and 67.

Christian legends aside, we know nothing about how, where or when Simon Peter died. So, we have no way of knowing how old he may have been at the time.
