Reverse description A large, bold fleur-de-lis occupies the central field, rendered in high relief with elaborate Gothic detailing, its three petals fanning outward from a central stem tied at the base, closely following the Florentine florin prototype. The surrounding peripheral legend in Latin reads ARAGO REX FR, referencing Fernando I as King of Aragon. The irregular hammered flan and strong die impression are consistent with early fifteenth-century Majorcan gold coinage.
