| Obverse description | A panoramic veduta scene rendered in the style of Francesco Guardi's painting 'Saint Mark's Basin, Looking Towards the Island of San Giorgio Maggiore,' as preserved in the Wallace Collection, London. The composition depicts the Venetian lagoon with gondolas and figures in the foreground, the island of San Giorgio Maggiore with its prominent church and campanile visible across the water in the middle ground. The scene is executed in fine engraved detail, faithfully evoking Guardi's characteristic atmospheric brushwork. The legend REPUBBLICA ITALIANA arcs across the upper field, identifying the issuing state. |
