Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of King Henry III of Castile, who was known for his efforts to modernize and centralize the government, and promote trade and commerce. The coin's design, featuring the king's crowned bust on one side and the royal coat of arms on the other, reflects the monarch's efforts to assert his authority and legitimacy. Despite being a standard circulation coin, this particular issue is relatively rare and highly sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and the fact that it was minted in the city of Seville, which was an important center of trade and commerce during the Middle Ages.
