| Obverse description | Crowned facing bust of Enrique II with long flowing hair, rendered in a stylised Gothic manner typical of Castilian medieval coinage. The king is depicted full-face, wearing a crown visible above the flan edge, with detailed hair falling to the shoulders. The bust is set within the coin field surrounded by a circular Latin legend. The die work is characteristic of the hammered billon issues of the Trastámara period, with bold relief despite the irregular flan. |
