| Reverse description | Central device depicts the Lion of Saint Mark passant, shown in profile facing left with large spread wings raised above its back, standing on a ground line within a beaded inner circle. Two small floral rosettes are placed symmetrically in the lower field beneath the ground line. The encircling Latin legend SANCT·MARCVS·VEN· identifies the patron saint of Venice and proclaims the Venetian Republic. The composition follows the long-established iconographic tradition of the Winged Lion as the emblem of Venetian sovereignty. |
