| Reverse description | A lozenge-shaped (diamond-oriented) heraldic shield bearing a pattern of lozenges or fusils in the field, representing the arms of Gerona, set centrally within an inner beaded circle. The city name legend runs around the periphery between the inner and outer beaded borders. The flan is irregular and slightly clipped, consistent with hand-struck billon coinage of sixteenth-century Catalonia. |
