Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 25 Zecchini coin is that it features an image of the Doge of Venice, Silvestro Valier, on one side, and the Lion of St. Mark on the other. The coin was minted during Valier's reign as Doge, which lasted from 1694 to 1700. The coin's design is a representation of the power and influence of the Republic of Venice during that time.
