Reverse description A detailed Gothic castle of three towers occupies the central field, rendered in the Castilian heraldic tradition with crenellated battlements, a central gate, and flanking turrets. The castle, the arms of Castile, is set within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin royal legend of Alfonso XII distributed in the outer margin. The design is characteristic of the Seville mint's output during the Castilian civil war period, with bold relief on a planchet of irregular flan shape.
