| Obverse description | Crowned bust of Alfonso V facing left, rendered in medieval hammered style with bold, somewhat crude relief typical of Aragonese billon coinage. The king's effigy is depicted wearing an ornate crown, with the facial features summarily executed. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central effigy within the coin's irregular flan. |

| Reverse description | A pointed oval shield set on its tip within a lozenge or diamond-shaped frame, centrally placed within an inner beaded circle. The shield displays the characteristic vertical pales of the Crown of Aragon. Small pellets or ornamental devices appear at the cardinal points flanking the shield. The surrounding circular Latin legend runs along the outer margin of the irregular flan. |
