| Reverse description | A stylized tree with multiple spreading branches occupies the central field, rendered in a schematic, Gothic manner typical of medieval Catalan municipal coinage. The design is framed by two concentric beaded circles, between which a Latin legend identifying the city of Gerona runs around the full circumference. The tree motif serves as the civic emblem of Gerona and is boldly struck, dominating the flan. The overall style is consistent with the irregular hammered technique of the period. |
