Beschrijving keerzijde Central field displays a stylized cross or geometric motif set within a plain inner circle, enclosed by a beaded or rope border. The design reflects the austere Romanesque coinage tradition of medieval Navarre, with the motif rendered in low relief on an irregularly shaped billon flan. The peripheral legend NAVARORVM is partially legible around the coin's edge, distributed across the available space. Strike weakness and flan irregularity are consistent with hammered production methods of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Sancho VI earned the epithet "el Sabio" — the Wise — partly through his systematic reorganization of Navarrese fiscal and legal infrastructure, including the fueros granted to frontier towns that needed economic incentive to remain populated against Castilian and Aragonese pressure. The tiny billon fractional issues of his reign circulated precisely in those border markets, where small-denomination exchange was a daily reality rather than a convenience.

At 0.28 g, dies were almost impossible to align consistently, and off-center strikes on this type are the rule rather than an aberration.
