| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field occupied by a quartered coat of arms displaying four crowned lions passant guardant in each quarter, representing the arms of Aragon-Leon, surrounded by decorative scrollwork or ornamentation flanking the shield. The whole is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The peripheral legend reads ARAGONUM · REX · 1611, with a patriarchal cross serving as a punctuation device at the top of the legend. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan and bold relief typical of hammered silver coinage of early seventeenth-century Aragon. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip III's reign saw the expulsion of the Moriscos from Aragon in 1610–1611 — over 60,000 people removed by royal decree — a demographic catastrophe that gutted agricultural labor across the kingdom. The timing of this issue is not incidental. Increased Crown expenditure on logistics and military enforcement of the expulsion demanded liquidity, and the Aragonese mints were pressed accordingly.
The dual Calatayud and Zaragoza attribution behind the KM#18.1 and 18.2 distinction matters here: the two facilities produced dies of noticeably different quality, and pieces have historically been misattributed between them.
