Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Marcello - Pietro Mocenigo coin is that it features a unique design on its reverse side. Instead of the usual depiction of a saint or a religious symbol, the coin bears an image of a lion, which was the symbol of the Mocenigo family. This indicates that the coin was likely minted during a time when the Mocenigo family held significant political power in the Republic of Venice.
