Interesting fact
The Cuartillo coin from the Kingdom of Castile and Leon, minted during the reign of Henry IV (1454-1471) features a unique design element - a shield with the royal coat of arms, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was a departure from the traditional designs used on previous coins of the kingdom and signified a new era of royal symbolism.
