Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Henry III of Castile, who was also known as Henry the Sufferer due to his many health problems. Despite his poor health, Henry III was able to rule for over 40 years and implement several important reforms, including the creation of a new coinage system that included the denier coin.
