Beschrijving keerzijde Within a beaded inner circle, a nimbate frontal bust of Saint Zeno, patron saint of Verona, depicted in episcopal vestments in the hieratic style typical of medieval Italian civic coinage. The saint's nimbus is clearly delineated, and the bust is rendered facing the viewer in a formal, stylized manner. At the top of the inner field, the Della Scala heraldic device of a ladder (scala) is prominently placed, asserting the signorial authority of the ruling dynasty. The surrounding circular legend in uncial Latin letters identifies the figure as Saint Zeno.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued during the joint rule of Bartholomew II and Anthony della Scala, this coin falls within a turbulent period for the Scaligeri dynasty. The brothers inherited Verona and Vicenza following the death of Cansignorio in 1375, but their co-lordship was brief and violent — Anthony had Bartholomew murdered in 1381, and was himself ousted by Gian Galeazzo Visconti just seven years later, ending Scaligeri rule over Verona entirely. The six-year window this piece could have been struck narrows further when political disruptions are accounted for.
