| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Louis XIV facing right, occupying the central field. The portrait is rendered in a somewhat crude, provincial style characteristic of wartime emergency coinage struck during the Catalan Revolt. A fleur-de-lis is visible to the left of the bust, serving as a royal emblem. The surrounding Latin legend reads · LVD · XIV · D · G · R · F · E · C · BA ·, abbreviating Ludovicus XIV Dei Gratia Rex Franciae et Comes Barcinonae, acknowledging his dual sovereignty over France and the County of Barcelona. |
