| Obverse description | Crowned facing bust of King Martin I rendered in a stylized Gothic manner, positioned centrally within a plain inner circle. The king's face is depicted frontally with a prominent crown surmounted by a central cross finial and lateral fleurs-de-lis, typical of late 14th-century Aragonese royal portraiture. Decorative pellets and foliate elements flank the bust in the field. The surrounding legend is separated from the central motif by a beaded or rope inner border. The hammered flan displays characteristic irregular edge contours. |

| Reverse description | A long cross pattée divides the reverse field into four quarters, each containing a lozenge or oval shield charged with three vertical bars (pallets of Aragon), emblematic of the Crown of Aragon. A small cross or floral ornament appears above the long cross at the top of the inner circle. The entire central design is enclosed within a plain inner circle, with the encircling legend occupying the outer field. The die-work reflects the Gothic hammered coinage tradition of late medieval Aragon. |
