Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Henry IV of Castile, who was known as "Henry the Impotent" due to his inability to produce an heir. Despite this, he was able to secure the throne and rule for 24 years, during which time he implemented several reforms and strengthened the kingdom's economy.
