| Obverse description | Crowned facing effigy of Alfonso V, depicted in a frontal bust with a large ornate crown surmounting the head, flanked by stylized hair or drapery falling to either side. The portrait is rendered in the crude, bold style typical of medieval Majorcan billon coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central effigy, enclosed within the coin's irregular flan. The overall design reflects the rudimentary die-cutting and hammered manufacture characteristic of 15th-century Iberian minor coinage. |
