| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a large, bold letter C surmounted by a royal crown, enclosed within a plain inner circle, serving as the primary device and denoting the issuing authority of Charles III. The surrounding legend, arranged circularly, records the denomination in dineros and the year of striking. The inscription is separated from the toothed or granulated outer rim by a raised ring. The strike is characteristically uneven, with portions of the legend weakly impressed due to the hammered production method. |

Charles III's claim to the Spanish throne — backed by England, the Dutch Republic, and Austria — required him to govern Catalonia as a functioning sovereign while the War of the Spanish Succession ground on around him. Minting small copper coinage was a practical assertion of that sovereignty, and the Barcelona mint struck these ardites continuously through his Catalan residency. When Archduke Charles departed for Vienna in 1711 to claim the Habsburg imperial throne, English diplomatic will to continue the war evaporated almost immediately, leaving Catalonia politically stranded at Utrecht two years later.
