| Reverse description | Standing frontal figure of a saint, identified as Saint Raphael, blessing with the raised right hand and holding a processional cross in the left hand. The letter S appears above the right hand and R below it, serving as an abbreviated invocation of the saint's name. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded circle, executed in the rough hammered style typical of 11th-century Catalan feudal coinage. |
