| Obverse description | The obverse depicts Saint Mark standing in full figure at left, nimbed and robed in flowing drapery, holding a long patriarchal staff or gonfalon in his right hand. To his right stands the kneeling figure of the Doge Marco Foscarini in ducal robes and corno ducale, receiving the staff in a gesture of investiture. Between the two figures, the abbreviated title DVX appears in the field. The surrounding legend reads M·FOSCARENVS S·M·VENET·, separated by decorative stops, within a beaded inner border. |
