Design

Upon the obsverse has the profile of the current monarch (as of current Aitor III Larramendi) although this hasn't always been the case in times of crisis such as the Twenty Kingless Years. As for the reverse, it is enscribed with the amount the currency is worth and written in original form of the Currean Alphabet, otherwise known as 'the Court Script' mainly used by and for the pages and scribes of government.  
"Something I have noticed is that people keep trying to stratch the face of the king off when they are paying me."
— A merchant
