| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Doge Tomaso Mocenigo stands facing in ceremonial robes, receiving a banner or standard from the kneeling figure of St. Mark, the patron saint of Venice. Two six-pointed stars appear in the field to the left and right of the central group, serving as the distinguishing mintmarks for this emission. The design follows the traditional Venetian grosso convention established under Enrico Dandolo, rendered in the Byzantine-influenced hammered style characteristic of the Venetian mint. The peripheral Latin legend identifies the Doge and the city. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tomaso Mocenigo's dogeship coincided with Venice at perhaps its peak of commercial dominance in the eastern Mediterranean, a moment before the Ottoman pressure that would slowly erode Venetian trade privileges over the following decades. The grosso — by this period already a denomination with nearly two centuries of continuous production behind it — had become the workhorse of Levantine trade, recognized and accepted from Alexandria to Trebizond without need of assay.
The star privy marks distinguish this emission within the CNI sequence and likely indicate a specific mint official's tenure rather than a chronological subdivision of the reign.
