Description: | Post Medieval coin: Venetian silver soldino of the doge Leonardo Loredan minted during the period 1501 and 1521. Soldinios were known as the galyhalpens (galley-halfpence) as it was brought by the annual Venetian trading fleets. The soldino was about the size of English halfpennies and was popular because of a contemporary lack of small change: soldini in fact occur as English finds more often than proper halfpennies of the period.
