Cyprus. Ossidional AE struck during the Venetian occupation of Cyprus, XV sec. Obv. Lusignan Lion flanked by four letters I P L N. Rev. + V E S + in two lines. Schl. pl. VIII, 11. AE. 1.09 g. 16.00 mm. RRRR. Extremly rare. Apparently never offered in public sale. Good VF. This issue is so enigmatic and discussed by scholars since there are no clear references to the minting issue and ruler. Lazari was the first to publish this coin (the one in Medagliere Reale, Torino) attributing the coin to the Venetian occupation in Cyprus because of the recall to the Lusignan standard given by the lion on obverse. According to the comparison with one other example in the Morel-Fatio colletion and the misreading of the initials I F L M not I P L N , Lazari wrongly attributed the coin to Girolamo Pesaro lieutenenat in Nicosiae. Nowadays is possibile to say that the link with the venetian rule is clear as suggested by the crazie issued by venetians in Cyprus but the real placing of this coin is still to be searched.
