Beschrijving voorzijde Crowned bust of King Charles I (Holy Roman Emperor Charles V) facing right, depicted with long hair and armored shoulders in late Gothic style. The effigy is rendered in high relief typical of hammered Valencian gold coinage, with the royal crown prominently displayed above the head. A beaded inner circle frames the central design. The Latin legend surrounding the bust reads + CAROLVS x DEI x GRACIA x REX x ARAGON, interrupted by cross and pellet stops.

Aanvullende informatie

Valencia struck this issue under the authority of Carolus I — the same monarch known to the rest of Europe as Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor. The Kingdom of Valencia retained its own mint rights and coinage privileges under the Crown of Aragon, and this four-ducat piece reflects that fiscal autonomy during a period when the young Habsburgs were consolidating control across multiple sovereign territories simultaneously.

Cal#1 designation places this at the opening of Calicó's reference work — the first catalogued entry of the series. The date range spans the Revolt of the Germanies, Valencia's own internal uprising of 1519–1523, which severely disrupted regional commerce and minting activity.
