| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a plain Latin cross, the arms of which divide the crowned initials H and R — referencing Count Hugh Roger (Hugo Roger) of Pallars Sobira — into the four quarters. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, separated from it by a beaded or linear inner border. The strike is characteristic of late medieval Catalan hammered coinage, with an irregular flan and slightly uneven relief. |

| Reverse description | Central field features a plain Latin cross with a stepped or decorated base, its arms dividing the crowned initials H and R in the four quarters, mirroring the obverse type. A circular Latin legend runs around the periphery, enclosed within a beaded or linear border. The flan is irregular and the relief uneven, consistent with hand-hammered production of the late 15th century County of Pallars Sobira. |
