Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Alfonso X, also known as Alfonso the Wise, who was a powerful and influential king in the history of Spain. He played a significant role in the Reconquista, the reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula from the Moors, and his reign marked the beginning of a new era of Castilian dominance in the region.
