| Obverse description | Draped bust of Louis XIII facing right, depicted in a roughly struck, somewhat crude style typical of hammered Catalan emergency coinage. The effigy is set within a beaded inner circle and surrounded by a circular legend. Flanking the bust are the letters S and E, denoting the denomination Seiseno. The peripheral legend reads S E VILAFRANCA·PENITEVS·, referencing the issuing city of Vilafranca del Penedès. |
