Republic of Venice
The Most Serene Republic of Venice maintained its independence for over a millennium (697–1797 AD). Venetian coins — the grosso, the tornesello, and the legendary golden ducat — fueled Mediterranean trade and became trusted currency from London to Byzantium. The iconic image of the Doge kneeling before St. Mark remains one of the most recognizable designs in numismatic history.
