| Obverse description | Central field displays the heraldic shield of the House of Barcelona, featuring four vertical pales (bars), enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend, composed of Latin characters between two beaded circles, reads BARQINO, denoting the city of Barcelona. The overall style is characteristic of medieval Catalan hammered coinage, with an irregular flan and bold, deeply struck relief. |
