| Opschrift voorzijde | + ENRICVS : REX : LEGIONIS |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bold Greek cross divides the reverse field into four quarters, each containing a crowned letter or heraldic symbol: the upper two quarters bear crowned initials, while the lower quarters display crowned letters R and I, referencing the royal title. The quadrants are enclosed within an inner beaded circle. The circumferential Latin legend reads + ENRICVS : REX : CASTELLE ENRI, invoking the king's title as Rex of Castile. The overall design is consistent with the cruzado type struck for Enrique II during the early years of the Trastámara dynasty. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Enrique II issued this coin in the immediate aftermath of seizing the Castilian throne by force — he had his half-brother Pedro I killed at Montiel in March 1369, ending a brutal civil war that had drawn in both the Black Prince and Bertrand du Guesclin as opposing mercenary commanders. The cruzado series was part of a broader monetary reorganization intended to stabilize a kingdom financially wrecked by nearly a decade of factional warfare and foreign intervention.
The AB#462 attribution places this within Álvarez Burgos's classification of Enrique's first monetary phase, before the 1373 reforms tightened billon standards across the realm.
