| Reverse description | The reverse displays a quartered shield of Catalonia, divided by a plain cross into four quarters, each bearing the characteristic orbs or roundels of the Catalan arms. The shield is centered in the field and enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The peripheral legend in Latin, naming the issuing city of Cervera and the date, runs clockwise around the outer margin. The flan is irregular in shape, as is typical of hammered coinage of this era, with some weakness at the edges. |
