One interesting fact about the Dinero "negro" coin is that it was issued 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 ruled the Kingdom of Castile and Leon from 1252 until his death in 1284 and was known for his military conquests, administrative reforms, and cultural achievements. The coin's design and issuance during his reign reflect the economic and political developments of the time, and its preservation and study provide valuable insights into the history of coinage and the economy of the region.
