| Obverse description | St. Mark, seated at left in episcopal robes, presents a staff surmounted by a cross and pennant to the kneeling Doge Francesco Loredan at right, who receives it in a gesture of investiture. The scene is rendered in high relief with architectural or decorative framing elements in the field. The mintmaster's initials appear in the exergue below the principal figures. The surrounding legend reads S·M·V·FRANC·LAVREDANO·D· G·A·C, invoking Saint Mark of Venice and identifying the Doge. |
