Reverse description Central device consisting of a ducal corno (Doge's ceremonial cap) placed atop a crossed sword and baton, symbolizing the military authority and sovereignty of the Venetian Doge, rendered in fine relief against a plain field. A horizontal rule separates the central device from the inscription ANNO III in the lower exergue, denoting the third year of Morosini's reign. The encircling Latin legend NON ALIA FRVITVR VICTORIA LAVDE reads around the upper and lateral periphery, translating roughly as 'No other victory enjoys such praise,' a reference to Morosini's celebrated military campaigns. The coin is framed by a beaded border throughout.
