Description: | Copper alloy Nuremberg stock 'Lion of St Mark' jetton. The lion is nimbate and entirely within the inner circle, including the halo, on the obverse, and the imperial orb surmounted by a cross on the reverse has no pellets, annulets or elements outside the tressure. The initial mark is a crown and the inscriptions are fictitious, but the obverse reads: MENBOVD:MELBOVD:MENB and the reverse reads: MELMEL[...]MELMELMEL which matches well with anonymous Nuremberg stock jettons illustrated in Mitchener (1988) on page 361, nos.1103-1104, which date from c.1500-1570.
