There is no evidence about how Peter died. According to legend, he was crucified by Nero. He requested to be crucified upside down because he did not deserve to be crucified in the same manner as the Christ. If he was crucified, it would seem reasonable that nails were used.

∙ 11y agoThe person saying it was not a cross but a "spike" is a Jehovah's Witness (only they have such a belief). This comes from the New World Translation, which is not a translation (you CAN NOT find the names or credentials of the translators), but an attempt to just take out words that don't fit their heretical teachings with other words. Not only do they deny the deity of Christ, but they even attack the symbol of his propitiating sacrifice.
