| Obverse description | Crowned facing bust of King James I (Jaime I) in high relief, depicted in a schematic medieval style with a crenellated crown and rudimentary facial features. The king's shoulders are visible below the bust, rendered with simple linear detail characteristic of 13th-century Aragonese hammered coinage. A circular legend surrounds the central effigy within the coin's irregular flan. The overall style is typical of the primitive die-engraving conventions of the period, with the royal image serving as the primary device. |
