| 背面描述 | A stylised three-towered castle, emblem of the Kingdom of Castile, occupies the central field with a pronounced gateway visible at the base between two flanking towers, all rendered in the schematic hammered style typical of late 14th-century Castilian billon issues. The towers are crenellated and the overall design, while crude, is clearly legible as the heraldic castle of Castile. A circular Latin legend surrounds the type reading ENRICVS REX CASTELLE. |

Enrique II came to power by murdering his half-brother Pedro I in 1369, and the cornado issues of his reign were minted under a monetary system badly strained by the civil war that brought him there. The Santiago mint — identified by the scallop shell privy mark — was one of several Castilian mints authorized to strike these small billon pieces as Enrique worked to consolidate legitimacy through, among other things, a functioning coinage.
AB#477 is among the better-documented varieties of this type. The scallop shell attribution to Santiago is secure.
