<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orielensis, post: 3295529, member: 96898&quot;]Your first coin is a Venetian soldino from the 15th or 16th century. The reverse legend reads &quot;LAVS TIBI SOLI&quot;, the obverse shows St Mark and a kneeling doge. Since I can&#039;t read the obverse legend on your picture, I can&#039;t tell you the name of the doge it was minted for, but you should be able to get there with the coin in hand and some online research. <a href="https://finds.org.uk/medievalcoins/denominations/denomination/id/170" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://finds.org.uk/medievalcoins/denominations/denomination/id/170" rel="nofollow">Here</a> is some basic info on the denomination.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse legend on your coin is a bit strange – usually, the break in &quot;TI–BI&quot; is at the feet and not at the head of the standing Christ figure. I don&#039;t know enough about the type to tell whether your coin is a variant, a contemporary imitation, or a modern fake. I&#039;d consider the latter rather unlikely, but you would have to do more research.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
