Reverse description A schematic bust of King Alfonso I faces left, depicted in a stylized Romanesque manner with rudimentary facial features and lined hair detail, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The portrait is rendered with the simplified, almost abstract quality typical of early 12th-century Iberian hammered coinage. A Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, identifying the ruler as Alfonso Sanchez, King. The flan exhibits the irregular outline and uneven strike characteristic of hand-produced medieval billon coinage.
