| Obverse description | Central field depicts a yoke — the personal device of Ferdinand II — rendered in relief within a beaded inner circle. A mint mark letter (B for Burgos, as visible on this example) appears below the yoke device. The surrounding legend, partially legible due to the hammered fabric of the flan, reads FERNANDVS ET ELISABET in Latin characters. The overall style is characteristic of late medieval Castilian coinage, with a roughly circular, irregularly shaped flan typical of hand-struck production. |
