An incomplete medieval soldino of Doge Michael (Michele) Steno (1400-1413), mint of Venice. The flan is jagged and broken between 4 and 7 o'clock. The silver soldino of Venice was 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.
