Comment
Mintmaster initials: PM, TS.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Grosso coin from the Republic of Venice is that it features an image of Saint Mark, the patron saint of Venice, on one side, and the Doge of Venice, Tomaso Mocenigo, on the other side. This coin was minted during Mocenigo's reign from 1414 to 1423 and was used as a standard circulation coin in the Italian States. The use of silver in the coin's composition adds to its historical significance and value as a collector's item.
