| Reverse description | The Lion of Saint Mark, symbol of the Venetian Republic, strides to the left with its head turned to face the viewer frontally, rendered in the heraldic style typical of Venetian billon coinage of the mid-17th century. The encircling legend reads ·SANCT·MARC·VEN·, invoking the patron saint of Venice. The denomination XII appears prominently in the exergue below the lion, denoting the face value of 12 Soldi. |
