Comment
The legends are meant to be read from the Madonna side to the eagle side: "Bertrand, Patriarch ... of Aquileia."Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denaro - Bertrand ND (1334-1340) coin from the Patriarchate of Aquileia is that it features a unique design element - a small cross on the reverse side, which is not commonly found on coins from this region and time period. This cross is believed to symbolize the connection between the Patriarchate of Aquileia and the Holy Roman Empire.
