Reverse description A full-length frontal figure of Christ in Majesty stands within a beaded mandorla-shaped ellipse lined with six-pointed stars, His right hand raised in benediction and His left hand holding the Gospels. The devotional legend EGO·SVM·LVX·MVND (I am the Light of the World, John 8:12) surrounds the central motif in the outer field, terminating abbreviated due to the reduced flan size of this half-zecchino denomination. The design follows the canonical Venetian zecchino type, executed in the high-relief hammered style consistent with the Zecca di Venezia's output of this period.
