| Obverse description | Central type depicting a rampant lion facing left, crowned, rendered in a bold and schematic medieval style characteristic of Leonese coinage. The lion fills the majority of the field and is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The legend LEO appears in the surrounding field, referencing the Kingdom of León. The flan is irregular, as is typical of hammered medieval billon coinage of this period. |
