| Reverse description | The reverse displays a crowned standing figure of Justice, facing front, holding a sword in her right hand and scales in her left, set within an arched or semicircular frame typical of Venetian billon coinage of the late sixteenth century. The figure stands on a small exergual line, below which the Roman numeral IIII denotes the denomination of four gazzette. The surrounding legend reads SVVM EST + OMNI DOO *IIII*, a reference to the Suum cuique principle, rendered in Latin across the field and border. The design reflects the Republic of Venice's iconographic emphasis on justice and divine authority. |
