| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a full-length, facing figure of Saint Justina of Padua, patron saint of Venice's naval victory at Lepanto, rendered in a formal Baroque style. She holds a palm branch in one hand, symbolizing martyrdom, and a book in the other, representing her sanctity. Behind her, the field opens into a panoramic maritime scene with a sailing ship at sea to one side and a rocky island on the horizon to the other, recalling the Battle of Lepanto. The numeral 124 appears in the exergue, denoting the coin's value in soldi. The surrounding Latin legend MEMOR·ERO·TVI·IVSTINA·VIRG, meaning 'I shall remember thee, Virgin Justina,' frames the devotional composition. |
