| Reverse description | Quartered shield of the Royal Arms of Castile and León, divided by a bold cross of Jerusalem extending to the edges of the flan. The upper-left and lower-right quarters display the castles of Castile, while the upper-right and lower-left quarters bear the lions of León. The shield is struck in the characteristic irregular fashion of hammered cob coinage, with the cross serving as the dominant design element. Portions of the surrounding legend and additional heraldic detail are only partially visible due to the nature of the irregular planchet. |
