| Reverse description | A bold equal-armed cross with splayed, slightly floriated terminals occupies the central field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The cross divides the inner field into four quadrants, each left plain. The surrounding outer legend reads ✠ • S • MARCVS •, invoking Saint Mark, the patron saint of Venice. The design is typical of Venetian medieval billon small coinage, struck on an irregular planchet with characteristic hammered technique. |
