Obverse description Central cross pattée with elongated blade-like arms extending toward the coin's edge, dividing the field into four quadrants. A beaded inner circle frames the cross motif. The surrounding legend reads SANCTA CRUX, rendered in crude Latin capitals characteristic of early medieval Catalan coinage. The die work is rough and irregular, consistent with hammered production of the 10th–11th century.
