| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by a bold plain cross with globules in each of the four quadrants formed by the cross arms, evoking the traditional Genoese cross type. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the peripheral legend in uncial characters running along the coin's irregular flan. The overall style is characteristic of medieval Genoese colonial hammered coinage, with slightly uneven striking typical of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dorino Gattilusio ruled Lesbos from 1428 until his death in 1449, having secured the lordship after ousting his own brother Jacopo in a coup backed by Genoese and Byzantine support. The island's mint operated under the peculiar dual authority typical of Genoese colonial arrangements — nominally subordinate to Genoa, practically autonomous. Dorino maintained careful diplomatic balance between an increasingly pressured Byzantine Empire and the Ottoman advance that would, within a decade of his death, render the entire Aegean Genoese presence extinct.
