| Additional information |
Pedro IV of Aragon — known as "el Cerimoniós" for his obsessive adherence to court protocol — reincorporated Majorca into the Aragonese Crown by force in 1343, ending the independent Mallorcan kingdom. Coinage continued under his name for decades afterward, but the issuing authority had fundamentally changed. These half-reals reflect that administrative absorption rather than any continuity of the old Mallorcan monetary tradition.
The Cru#451 attribution places this firmly within the post-conquest Majorcan series, struck at Palma under Aragonese fiscal oversight.
