All of these three are struck at the Royal Canadian Mint, and they are all just about the same size...

These coins are only similar one one side but the design is nearly identical. I don't know if they had the same designer or if the Italian coin was inspired by the German one.

I posted in another thread (https://en.numista.com/forum/topic41615.html) the Venetian Grosso and the copies that were initiated in the Eastern World. Following that theme, here is another Venetian Gross and several other "copies":
Venice: Giovanni Dandolo (1328-1339) AR Grosso (Paolucci #2)
Obv: IO DANDVL S M VENETI DVX; Doge and St. Marco standing facing, holding banner between them
Rev: IC - XC; Christ Pantokrator enthroned facing
Bulgaria: Georgi Terter II (1322-1323) AR Grosh (Raduchev & Zhekov 1.10.1)
Obv: Christ enthroned facing, IC XC across field
Rev: Georgi and St. Mark standing facing, holding banner between them
The following coin is NOT mine, but I wish it was
:
The Zangid Atabegs of Aleppo: Nur al-din Mahmud ibn Zangi (1146-1174 CE) AE dirham
Venice: Giovanni Dandolo (1328-1339) AR Grosso (Paolucci #2)
Obv: IO DANDVL S M VENETI DVX; Doge and St. Marco standing facing, holding banner between them
Rev: IC - XC; Christ Pantokrator enthroned facing
Bulgaria: Georgi Terter II (1322-1323) AR Grosh (Raduchev & Zhekov 1.10.1)
Obv: Christ enthroned facing, IC XC across field
