| Reverse description | A plain cross divides the field into four quarters, with an annulet placed in the first and fourth angles and three pellets or bezants arranged in the second and third angles, a heraldic device associated with the arms of Barcelona. The city name legend is distributed around the design within a beaded circle, with the date appearing as part of the legend, the final digit rendered as 'Z' for '5' in the local numerical convention. The overall composition is typical of Catalan hammered silver fractions of the period. |
