| Obverse description | Central field occupied by stylized vegetal ornaments arranged in a decorative pattern. Surrounding the central motif, a Latin legend reading GIRNDA (Gerona) is inscribed around the periphery. The lettering is characteristic of Carolingian-influenced Iberian coinage of the 10th–11th centuries. The flan is irregular and the die work is crude, typical of hammered medieval Catalan deniers of this period. |
