Comment

This type of coins were "cut" in Venice, between the years 1688-1690.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Venetian lion, a symbol of the Republic of Venice, on one side, and the value of the coin, "2 Soldi," on the other. This design was used during the reign of Doge Francesco Morosini, who ruled Venice from 1688 to 1690. The coin's copper composition and relatively low weight made it a practical and accessible form of currency for everyday transactions in the Republic of Venice.
