| Reverse description | A stylized triple-towered castle, the central tower being taller and flanked by two shorter towers, each surmounted by battlements, with a rounded arched doorway at the base of the central tower. A cross surmounts the central tower, a distinctive feature of the cornado type. The castle device is set within a beaded inner circle, with the surrounding Latin legend reading in the field around. The engraving reflects the bold, schematic heraldic style characteristic of Castilian billon coinage under Sancho IV. |
