| Beschrijving voorzijde | St. Mark, the patron saint of Venice, stands at left in ecclesiastical robes, presenting a staff surmounted by a cross to the kneeling Doge at right in a traditional investiture scene. The inscription LVD. MANIN appears vertically between the two figures, with S. M. VEN distributed in the field. The composition follows the long-established Venetian ducal type, rendered in the characteristic high-relief style of late-Republic hammered gold coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lodovico Manin was the last Doge of Venice — a distinction he earned through bribery at the 1788 election and cemented through capitulation. When Napoleon's envoy arrived in May 1797, Manin removed his ducal cap and told an attendant he would not be needing it again. The Great Council voted to dissolve the republic that same day, ending over a thousand years of continuous governance. Coins struck under his name span the entire final chapter.
The quarter zecchino saw limited production across Venetian issues generally, making survivors in any condition scarcer than the full zecchino by a considerable margin.
