| Beschrijving keerzijde | A stylised castle with three towers rendered in high relief, the central tower taller than the flanking ones, all set upon a crenellated base — the heraldic emblem of the Kingdom of Castile. The design fills the field in the characteristic bold, schematic manner of mid-15th century Castilian hammered coinage, with a circular Latin legend partially legible around the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John II of Castile's reign was administratively functional but financially chaotic — the crown's chronic insolvency forced repeated debasements of the billon coinage throughout the 1430s and 1440s, making the actual silver content of any given denier from this period variable enough to frustrate even contemporary merchants. The Seville mint was among the most active in the crown's network during these years, serving Andalusian trade routes that connected Castile's interior markets to Atlantic and Mediterranean commerce.
The Imperatrix and MOMECA references diverge slightly on subtype classification for this issue, reflecting genuine uncertainty about die attributions across the reign's long span.
