| Obverse description | Crowned facing effigy of King Enrique II occupying the central field, depicted in a frontal bust style characteristic of late medieval Castilian coinage. The crown is rendered with Gothic detailing above the monarch's head. The portrait is rendered in low relief in the hammered style typical of the period. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, partially legible due to the irregular flan. |

The central tower rises prominently above two flanking turrets, all rendered in the Gothic hammered style. Below the castle, a crescent or decorative element is visible, and the composition is enclosed within a circular border. A partial Latin legend surrounds the device in the outer field, consistent with the obverse inscription. |
