Christian traditions love a martyr's death, and Paul is traditionally held to have been martyred in Rome in the mid-60s of the first century. However, Clement of Rome, writing around 95 CE, seems to have believed that Paul went to Spain and might have died there. We do not know the year Paul died.
The Apostle Paul is believed to have been martyred in Rome around AD 64 or 67 during the persecution of Christians under Emperor Nero. He was likely beheaded, as he was a Roman citizen and execution by beheading was reserved for citizens.
The Epistle to the Galatians suggests that Paul had already been a Christian missionary for at least 18 to 20 years before he wrote that epistle. The other epistles and the evidence of Clement suggest that he was a relatively old man for the times, at the time of his death, whether in Spain or elsewhere.
1 Clement 5:5-6: "By reason of jealousy and strife Paul by his example pointed out the prize of patient endurance. After that he had been seven times in bonds, had been driven into exile, had been stoned, had preached in the East and in the West, he won the noble renown which was the reward of his faith, having taught righteousness unto the whole world and having reached the farthest bounds of the West; and when he had borne his testimony before the rulers, so he departed from the world and went unto the holy place, having been found a notable pattern of patient endurance."
The Bible not specifically say how the apostle Paul died. It is believed he was beheaded by the Romans in 68 AD.
The apostle who was stoned but survived was Paul, also known as Saint Paul or the Apostle Paul. He was stoned in Lystra but managed to recover and continue his missionary work.

OpinionI would say Apostle Paul wherever I use 'Apostle' as a title, in the same way as I would say Mr Smith, with 'Mr' capitalised. Less frequently, I would write 'apostle' uncapitalised if I did not intend it as a title, for example where 'apostle' is the subject of the sentence, and Paul is addressed. Use capitals to be on the safe side.
