Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Real coin from the Kingdom of Castile and Leon is that it was used as a medium of exchange for goods and services during the reign of Henry II, who was also known as Henry of Trastamara. He was a powerful king who ruled over a large territory that included much of modern-day Spain and parts of Portugal. Despite his power, Henry II faced many challenges during his reign, including conflicts with neighboring kingdoms and the Black Death, which had a significant impact on the economy and population of Europe. Despite these challenges, the Real coin remained a widely used and trusted form of currency during his reign.
