Reverse description Central field displays a bishop's mitre in high relief, the emblem associated with the town of Puigcerdà, flanked by elements of the local civic arms. The surrounding Latin legend, partially visible around the irregular flan, records the mint city and date. The strike is characteristic of hammered coinage, with uneven pressure resulting in variable relief across the surface. A partial beaded border is discernible on the better-preserved areas of the flan.
