Obverse lettering : LEGIONIS
Reverse description A bold cross pattée occupies the central field, enclosed within a circular inner border, dividing the reverse into four quadrants. Each quadrant contains a decorative element — likely pellets or annulets — rendered in the crude Romanesque style characteristic of 12th-century Leonese coinage. The legend ALFONSVS, identifying the issuing monarch Alfonso VII, is distributed around the periphery in Latin majuscules. The strike is irregular and the flan shows the typical rough edge of hammered billon coinage of the period.
