| Reverse description | A stylized temple or church facade depicted with four base columns supporting a simple capital, a cross standing between the central columns. Above the temple, a second cross divides the encircling Latin legend. The architectural rendering is schematic and hieratic, reflecting the early medieval Venetian artistic tradition. The legend XPE SALVA VENECIAS (Christ save Venice) surrounds the design within the beaded border. |
