| Reverse description | The reverse displays a passant lion of Saint Mark in high relief at center, facing left with one forepaw raised, set within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding Latin legend reads SANCTVS MARCVS VENET, introduced by a cross pattée, invoking the patron saint of Venice. The bold, stylized rendering of the lion is consistent with Venetian hammered coinage struck for Cyprus during the final decades of Venetian rule. |
