Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Mocenigo - Andrea Gritti ND (1523-1539) coin from Republic of Venice (Italian States) is that it features an image of Saint Mark, the patron saint of Venice, on one side, and the Doge of Venice, Andrea Gritti, on the other side. This coin was minted during Gritti's reign as Doge, which lasted from 1523 to 1539, and it was used as a standard circulation coin in the Republic of Venice. The use of silver in the coin's composition and its relatively small weight of 6.5 grams make it a valuable and collectible item among numismatists today.
