| Reverse description | Central field quartered by a plain cross, displaying the combined arms of Castile and León: in the first and fourth quarters a triple-towered castle (Castile), and in the second and third quarters a rampant lion (León). The arms are rendered in a bold, stylised medieval manner characteristic of hammered coinage of the period. A circular legend in Gothic uncial lettering surrounds the design within the border. |
