Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Grosso - Michele Morosini ND (1382) coin from Republic of Venice (Italian States) is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. Instead of the usual depiction of a saint or a religious symbol, this coin features a representation of the Doge of Venice, Michele Morosini, who ruled from 1382 to 1382. This is a rare example of a coin that combines both religious and secular elements in its design, reflecting the complex political and religious landscape of Venice during the late medieval period.
