Reverse description The Lion of Saint Mark, the emblematic winged lion of Venice, is depicted passant to the left with head reverted, its mane rendered in bold flowing lines and wings spread prominently above the body. The lion rests its left forepaw upon a heraldic shield bearing the arms of Venice, while its right forepaw holds an upright sword. Flanking stars appear in the lower field beside the date. The circumferential legend is divided by the central device, with the regnal year ANN·IIII and the date 1703 prominently displayed in the lower exergue within a beaded border.
