| Reverse description | Facing bust of Saint Mark rendered in a highly stylized, archaic manner with large schematic facial features including prominent eyes and a beard indicated by pellets or short lines, set within a beaded inner circle. The bust occupies the central field and is surrounded by the dedicatory legend in Latin. The reverse design reflects the strong Byzantine artistic influence prevalent in Venetian coinage of this period, with the patron saint serving as the Republic's symbol of divine authority. |
