Reverse description A bold cross pattée centered in the field, with small annulets or pellets placed in two of the angles formed by the arms of the cross, a decorative motif common to Sicilian denari of the Aragonese period. The design is rendered in a flat, stylized manner consistent with hammered billon coinage. A partial circular Latin legend reading + GRA REX SICILIAE encircles the central device, completing the obverse inscription. The flan is irregular with uneven edges typical of hand-struck medieval issues.
