| Obverse description | Within a raised octofoil border, a displayed eagle with wings spread and head facing, rendered in bold relief characteristic of Sicilian hammered coinage of the late 13th century. The eagle's plumage is finely detailed with engraved feathering, and a small crown or device appears at the base. The surrounding field between the octofoil and the outer beaded border carries the royal Latin legend in Gothic lettering, separated by pellet stops. |

| Reverse description | Within a raised octofoil border, a heater-shaped shield bearing the arms of Aragon — pales (vertical bars) representing the dynastic arms of the Crown of Aragon — rendered in crisp relief. Small pellets or annulets punctuate the field between the octofoil and the outer beaded border. The circumferential Latin legend in Gothic script, separated by pellet stops, identifies the ruler's comital title as Count of Barcelona. |
