| Obverse description | The denomination '1/2' appears prominently in the upper field, with 'QUARTO' inscribed in large raised letters across the centre, all contained within a raised circular border. A small six-petalled rosette ornament is positioned below the denomination inscription, serving as a decorative stop. The entire design is set within a plain inner circle, itself surrounded by a finely toothed milled rim. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the lozenge-shaped (diamond-oriented) shield of Catalonia, bearing a cross pattée superimposed upon the characteristic quartered design, rendered in bold relief at the centre of the field. Olive or laurel branches flank the shield on either side, forming a partial wreath around the central device. The design is enclosed within a raised circular border, surrounded by the same finely toothed milled rim as the obverse. |
