Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Zecchino coin from the Republic of Venice is that it features an image of the Lion of St. Mark, which is a symbol of the city of Venice and represents the city's connection to the biblical figure of St. Mark, who is said to have brought Christianity to the city.
