| Obverse description | Crowned bust of King Martin I facing left, depicted in profile with flowing hair and draped shoulders, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The royal crown is rendered with prominent fleurons. The surrounding Latin legend reads +MARTINUS:DEI:GRA:REX, identifying the ruler as Martin, King by the Grace of God. The portrait displays the characteristic flat, linear style of late medieval Catalan hammered coinage. |
