| Obverse description | Central field bears the interlaced Gothic monogram of Ferdinand and Isabella (F and Y conjoined), surmounted by a large royal crown rendered in high relief. The monogram occupies the majority of the flan, with the crown's arches and points clearly defined in the hammered style typical of late 15th-century Castilian coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central device, beyond which a circular Latin legend runs continuously around the periphery. The irregular flan and characteristic surface patina reflect standard hammered production of the period. |
