| Obverse description | The obverse is printed in blue on white paper and framed by a simple letterpress border with ornamental corner pieces. At left centre, the municipal coat of arms of Hostalric — a fortified tower within a laurel wreath, surmounted by a mural crown — serves as the central vignette. The denomination UNA PESSETA is set in large bold type, flanked by numeral 1 cartouches at upper left and lower right, with the issuing authority AJUNTAMENT D'HOSTALRIC at top and a serial number box at upper right. Two facsimile signature lines for L'Alcalde and El Secretari appear below the redemption clause. |
