Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during a time of political turmoil in the Kingdom of Castile and Leon. Enrique, also known as Henry, was a pretender to the throne and issued his own coins in an attempt to gain support for his claim. Despite his efforts, he was ultimately unsuccessful and his coins are now highly sought after by collectors due to their rarity and historical significance.
