Beschrijving keerzijde A large displayed eagle with wings spread holds upon its breast the quartered royal arms of Castile and León, with the central escutcheon of Granada at the base, all rendered in fine hammered relief. The shield is elaborately detailed with the castles of Castile and the lions of León in alternate quarters. The circumferential Latin legend SVB : VMBRA : ALARVM : TVARVM : PROTEGE : NOS : DOMINE encircles the design within a beaded border, invoking divine protection under the wings of the Lord.

Aanvullende informatie

The 10-ducat piece emerged from the Castilian monetary reforms codified in the Pragmática of Medina del Campo in 1497, the same ordinance that established the excelente as Spain's prestige gold coinage. Ferdinand and Isabella's names appear jointly because Castile and Aragon remained legally distinct crowns — the coin's dual authority was constitutional necessity, not ceremonial flourish.

The date range extending to 1548 reflects posthumous striking long after both monarchs had died — Isabella in 1504, Ferdinand in 1516. Mints continued using the paired royal titles under Charles I, a practice rooted in the legal fiction that the Catholic Monarchs' monetary authority persisted through their heir's reign.
