Reverse description Facing bust of a mitred saint rendered in low relief at the centre of the flan, identifiable as Saint Palladius of Embrun, patron of Camprodón. The bust is depicted frontally with a mitre above the head. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, contained between two beaded circles, incorporating the mint town name and the saint's initials. The strike is characteristic of irregular hammered copper coinage of the period.
