背面描述	Central device depicts the castle of Castile, rendered as a multi-turreted fortification with three towers, the central tower being taller and flanked by two shorter towers, all set upon a base — the heraldic emblem of the Kingdom of Castile. The castle is presented frontally within the field in a bold, stylized medieval manner typical of Castilian hammered coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, incorporating the mint mark B for Burgos. The overall design is characteristic of the cornado series issued under Pedro I.

附加信息	Pedro I came to power at fifteen and spent much of his reign fighting a dynastic civil war against his illegitimate half-brother Enrique de Trastámara, a conflict backed by Aragonese and French intervention. The cornado issues from Burgos belong to this turbulent window — Burgos was among the primary mints Pedro relied upon to fund his campaigns, and billon coinage was debased progressively as military expenses mounted through the 1360s. Pedro was ultimately defeated and killed at Montiel in 1369, and Enrique systematically recalled and overstruck much of his predecessor's coinage.
