| Obverse description | Central field displays the municipal coat of arms of Olot, featuring vertical lines overlaid by an eagle's wing, rendered in a bold, stylised manner. Ornamental beaded borders appear above and below the central device, with small floral or star ornaments flanking the lower border. The circular legend AJUNTAMENT D'OLOT runs around the periphery in Latin characters, interrupted by small decorative stops. The overall design reflects the simple, utilitarian aesthetic characteristic of Spanish Civil War emergency coinage. |
