Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Dobla coin is that it was issued during the reign of King Alfonso XI of Castile, who was known for his military campaigns against the Moors and his efforts to consolidate power within the kingdom. The coin's design, featuring the king's crowned bust on one side and the royal coat of arms on the other, reflects the political and cultural influences of the time. Additionally, the use of gold in the coin's minting represents the wealth and prosperity of the kingdom during this period.
