<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Milesofwho, post: 3111393, member: 91469&quot;]Here’s an earlier grosso of Pietro Gradenigo, who ruled from 1289-1311. He managed to get the whole of Venice excommunicated. At first, the Venetians used the purest possible silver in their grossos, like they used the purest gold for their ducats. Pietro was the second doge with a ducat.
