Obverse description Stylized bust of a bearded king in profile facing left, wearing a crown, with a bridge depicted below the effigy. To the left of the bust, a cross on a pole (processional cross), and to the right, a sword. The design is rendered in the rough, schematic style characteristic of Leonese hammered billon coinage of the 12th century. The legend ISPANIA runs around the periphery within a beaded border.
