Beschrijving voorzijde St. Mark, the patron saint of Venice, stands at left in full figure, presenting a gonfalon (pennant-bearing staff) to the kneeling Doge at right, who receives it in a gesture of investiture. The word DVX appears vertically in the field between the two figures, emphasizing the doge's title. The legend DOMINI·CON S·M·VENET D V X encircles the composition, identifying Doge Domenico Contarini as ruler under the protection of St. Mark. The design follows the long-established Venetian zecchino iconographic tradition, rendered in the bold, linear style characteristic of late medieval Venetian hammered gold coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde Christ Pantocrator stands facing in full figure within a mandorla formed by an elliptical halo of sixteen stars, his right hand raised in benediction and his left hand clasping the Holy Gospels. The figure is rendered in a hieratic, frontal Byzantine-influenced style consistent with Venetian ducal gold coinage of the period. The encircling Latin legend SIT·T·XPE·DAT·Q·TV· REGIS·ISTE·DVCA, an invocation meaning 'May this duchy be given to thee, O Christ, whom thou rulest,' frames the central device. The overall composition is deeply rooted in the iconographic formula established for the Venetian zecchino since the thirteenth century and maintained with remarkable consistency through successive doges.
