Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of King Henry II of Castile, who ruled from 1369 to 1379. During his reign, he implemented several economic reforms, including the introduction of a new coinage system, which included the Real coin. The Real coin was made of silver and was used as a standard unit of currency throughout the Kingdom of Castile and Leon. The fact that this coin was minted during King Henry II's reign and has survived to this day is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Spain.
