Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of King Henry II of Castile, who ruled from 1369 to 1373. He was known for his military campaigns against the Moors and for his efforts to consolidate power and centralize the government. This coin, made of billon and weighing 2.6 grams, was likely used in everyday transactions and would have been a common sight in the kingdom during that time period.
