| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by the Portuguese royal shield, displaying the characteristic quinas arrangement of the House of Burgundy, surrounded by a dotted inner circle. The mint mark letter (Ç, for Zamora) appears above the shield. A circular Latin legend in uncial lettering runs along the outer border within a beaded rim, reading the royal title of Fernando I as King of Portugal. The overall style is characteristic of late 14th-century Iberian hammered billon coinage, with irregular flan and bold, if somewhat crude, die work. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fernando I struck these at Zamora — a Castilian city — during the brief window when Portuguese forces held it as a prize of his first war against Enrique II of Castile. The arrangement was opportunistic: Fernando claimed the Castilian throne through his Burgundian lineage, and operating a mint inside captured enemy territory was as much a political gesture as a practical one. Zamora was surrendered back to Castile under the Treaty of Alcoutim in 1371, which hard-dates the entire production run to roughly two years.
