| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays a sword flanked by two heraldic shields, all contained within a beaded inner circle. A Latin legend encircles the design between two concentric circles. This coin represents approximately half of the original dinero, produced by cutting, and retains roughly the left half of the full obverse composition. The hammered fabric is irregular and slightly convex, consistent with medieval Catalan minting practice. |

Hugo V ruled Empúries during a period of acute fiscal pressure on the smaller Catalan counties, squeezed between the expanding Crown of Aragon and the persistent costs of maintaining coastal lordships along the Costa Brava. The split-dinero obol reflects an actual minting decision rather than a convenience: fractions were struck separately when the volume of small-denomination transactions — market tolls, port dues, minor ecclesiastical levies — demanded coins that cutting full pieces simply couldn't reliably produce at this weight.
Cru. 107 is among the scarcer Empúries fractional types. Most surviving examples come from hoard context rather than casual loss, suggesting limited but deliberate circulation within the county's own markets.
