Interesting fact

The ½ Cuartillo coin from the Kingdom of Castile and Leon, minted during the reign of Henry IV (Leon) in 1470-1471, features a unique design element - a crowned shield with the arms of Castile and Leon on its reverse side. This symbolizes the unity of the two kingdoms under a single ruler.
