Interesting fact
The 1 Denaro coin from the Republic of Venice, minted during the reign of Antonio Venier (1382-1400), features a unique design element - a small boat, known as a "gondola," on the reverse side. This design was a nod to the importance of maritime trade and the iconic symbol of Venice, the gondola.
