| Reverse description | Central field features a large stylized lily or fleur-de-lis, a design element directly derived from the Florentine florin prototype, rendered in bold relief with pronounced petals spreading upward. To the left of the lily a crowned heraldic helmet is visible, and to the right what appears to be a rampant lion, both serving as secondary heraldic devices. A partial circular Latin legend naming the issuing ruler runs along the coin's periphery. The overall composition follows the half-florin typology established for the Crown of Aragon territories, struck on an irregular planchet characteristic of hammered gold coinage. |
