Sap Moderator Australia 16844 Posts	Posted 02/28/2012 4:45 pm Venetian ducats all have much the same design: Christ in a lozenge of stars on one side, the doge kneeling before St Mark on the other. The difference is found in the name of the doge, above his kneeling figure. Yours says "ANDR DANDVLO", which is the Latinized abbreviation for doge Andrea Dandolo (1343-1354). Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
