Reverse description Central device features the crowned arms of Valencia — a pale (vertical bar) flanked by two rampant dragons (or bat-winged supporters), representing the traditional Valencian royal arms, struck in high relief on an irregular hammered flan. Dots or ornamental elements appear in the field, with the precise arrangement varying by die variety (Cal#24–28). A beaded border surrounds the central device. The partial Latin legend + VALENCIA MAIORICARVM encircles the design, referencing the Kingdom of Valencia and Majorca under Philip II's dominion. The overall strike is characteristic of mid-16th-century Valencian hammered gold coinage.
