| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized tree or plant motif surmounted by a long cross, rendered in the crude but expressive hammered style characteristic of Iberian medieval coinage. A horizontal Latin legend reading ARAGON flanks the cross in the upper field. The overall design is contained within the irregular flan with no formal border, typical of 11th-century Aragonese deniers struck at Monzon. |

| Reverse description | Facing or right-facing bust of King Pedro I, depicted schematically within a beaded inner circle, showing the ruler with stylized facial features and rudimentary crown or headdress as befitting a medieval hammered type. A circular Latin legend surrounds the beaded border, identifying the monarch. The execution is characteristic of the rough artisanal die-cutting of early 12th-century Aragonese mints. |
