Reverse description Full-length facing figure of St. Justina standing in the field, depicted as a young virgin martyr holding a palm branch in one hand and a book in the other, consistent with standard Venetian iconographic conventions for the saint. The figure is rendered in a formal, hieratic style typical of late sixteenth-century Venetian coinage. The denomination numeral '40' appears prominently in the exergue below. The Latin legend encircles the figure along the periphery of the coin.
