This coin was attributed as "Venice 1500's", but it appears to be the Venitian coinage for Crete. The closest match appears to be

The coin is about 16mm, and appears to be billon.
Do you agree?

Thank you very much for your help with this.
The Numista catalog says that the coin was for use in the "colonies of Coron and Modon, Negroponte and Crete". Of course, I know where Crete is. Are the others Ionian Islands; or where were they?
