Obverse description Crowned and draped bust of Carlos II facing right, rendered in a somewhat crude hammered style typical of late 17th-century Majorcan coinage. The king wears an ornate crown adorned with pellets, with long flowing hair visible beneath. A beaded inner circle frames the effigy within the field. The surrounding legend reads + CAROLVS · II · R · ARAGON I, identifying the monarch as Carlos II, King of Aragon.

Reverse description A bold Greek cross with slightly flared arms occupies the center of the reverse field, surrounded by a beaded inner circle. A small rooster or bird device is visible in the lower-left canton of the cross, serving as a mint or privy mark associated with the Palma de Mallorca Mint. A crown surmounts the top of the cross. The encircling legend reads + MAJORICARVM · CATOLIC, a partial reference to the Catholic monarchs of Majorca.
