Description: | Medieval coin: Venetian silver soldino of a doge dating to the late 14th to early 15th century. Part of the legend is missing off the flan, so may be clipped.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.
