| Reverse description | Central field features a prominent cross pattée enclosed within a beaded or plain inner circle, its four arms clearly defined and occupying most of the interior. The surrounding marginal legend reads VGO COME, identifying the issuer as Hugh (Hugo) Count, introduced by a cross. The lettering is irregularly spaced and partially off-flan in areas due to the crude hammered technique. The overall style is consistent with early thirteenth-century feudal Catalan deniers, emphasizing heraldic simplicity over artistic refinement. |
