| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned royal bust facing left, rendered in the schematic style characteristic of medieval Catalan hammered coinage. The effigy is enclosed within an inner beaded circle, with the circular Latin legend occupying the annular field between the inner and outer beaded borders. The crown is depicted with prominent points above the monarch's head, and the facial features are rendered in a bold, stylized manner typical of 13th–14th century Iberian deniers. |

James II of Aragon held Catalonia as a constituent principality within a broader Crown of Aragon that also encompassed Valencia, Majorca, and — for a time — Sicily. The denier issues attributed to his Catalan authority were struck under the monetary system he inherited from his father Peter III, a billon coinage designed as much for political continuity as for trade. James was simultaneously negotiating the Treaty of Anagni in 1295, surrendering Sicily to resolve a papal interdict that had burdened the Crown for over a decade.
Cru#340 places this squarely in the Barcelona mint tradition of low-silver billon that dominated small commercial transactions across the principality throughout the thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries.
