| Obverse description | Half-length frontal effigy of the Madonna holding the Christ Child to her right, both nimbed, set within a circular inner border. The mintmaster's initials flank the lower field, with the denomination numeral '6' dividing the letters 'C' and 'A' (mintmaster initials). A curved legend arches from upper left to upper right, composed of the mintmaster's abbreviated initials 'R.C.' and 'L.A.', separated by rosette stops. The style is characteristic of late Venetian struck copper coinage. |

| Reverse description | Frontal bust of Saint Mark the Evangelist, patron saint of Venice, draped and nimbed, holding the Gospel book before him. The saint is depicted in a hieratic, stylized manner consistent with Venetian devotional iconography of the mid-17th century. A circular legend surrounds the central device, reading 'SANCT.MARC.V', invoking Saint Mark, interrupted by rosette stops. The overall design is enclosed within the coin's rim. |
