| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the letters V and S in large Gothic script, separated by a vertical cross or staff element, likely representing the initials of the issuing town of Sanahúja. The design is surrounded by a beaded or pellet border. The legends and devices are crudely struck, consistent with small hammered municipal coinage of late medieval Catalonia. The overall style reflects the informal character typical of senyals issued by Catalan towns under the Crown of Aragon. |

The señal was a fiduciary token rather than a struck coin in the traditional sense — these brass pieces circulated under the authority of the Principality during a period when Catalonia retained its own monetary institutions distinct from the Crown of Aragon's broader fiscal apparatus. Ferdinand II, despite unifying the Iberian crowns through his marriage to Isabella, was constitutionally bound by Catalan privileges that prevented him from simply absorbing local currency arrangements. The Corts held that power.
Sanahúja, a small town in the Segarra comarca, issued its own señal under municipal sanction — a telling sign of how fragmented petty coinage authority remained in late medieval Catalonia.
