| Obverse description | Crowned royal effigy of Enrique II facing left, rendered in a stylized medieval manner characteristic of Castilian hammered coinage. The king is depicted with long flowing hair beneath an elaborate crown, with drapery visible at the shoulders. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central effigy in the field. The overall style is typical of the primitive die-cutting technique of fourteenth-century Iberian billon coinage, with irregular flan edges and some weakness in strike. |
