| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised Gothic castle with three towers occupies the central field, the central tower rising above the flanking ones, all rendered in bold low relief characteristic of hammered medieval coinage. The castle is shown with arched gateways at the base and detailed battlements atop each tower. A small ornamental device appears below the castle in the lower field. The circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, partially legible on the irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Enrique IV's billon issues are inseparable from the monetary chaos that defined his reign. Chronic debasement, unauthorized minting by private operators, and competing coinage from rebellious nobles produced a circulation environment so degraded that the 1462 Pragmatic of Medina del Campo attempted — largely unsuccessfully — to impose order on the whole mess. Toledo was an authorized mint throughout, but the proliferation of unofficial dies during these years means attribution can be genuinely difficult.
AB#771 is among the smaller fractions, which circulated hardest and survived least.
