| Reverse description | A stylized castle, the heraldic symbol of Castile, dominates the central field, depicted with three towers and an arched gateway. A banner mintmark appears to the left of the castle, identifying the Valladolid mint, while an initial letter appears to the right denoting the assayer or die-cutter responsible for the issue. The strike, consistent with hammered production, is irregular in outline and typical of low-denomination billon coinage of Philip II's reign. The reverse design follows the standard iconographic convention established for Castilian blancas of this era. |
