| Reverse description | Central field features a stylized cross fleury or cross with ornamental terminals, dividing the field into four quarters, each bearing decorative elements consistent with the municipal arms of Vic. The design is enclosed within a beaded or toothed inner circle. The surrounding Latin legend reads CIVITAS VICEN (City of Vic), followed by the partial date 164, reflecting the truncated dating convention common to emergency issues of this series. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, characteristic of hastily produced siege or wartime coinage of the Catalan Revolt period. |
