| Obverse description | Central field displays a large fleur-de-lis emblem, symbolizing the royal house, with the mint mark letter 'A' and a small star or rosette positioned below the fleur-de-lis. The design is contained within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend in Latin capital letters reads FERNANDVS·ET·ELISABET, identifying the joint monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella, separated by pellet stops. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan and uneven strike typical of hammered coinage of the late 15th and early 16th centuries. |
