Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of King Sancho IV of Castile, who was known for his military campaigns against the Moors and his efforts to consolidate power within the kingdom. Despite his achievements, Sancho IV's reign was cut short due to his untimely death in 1295, at the age of 33. This coin, minted during his reign, serves as a reminder of his brief but impactful rule.
