| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a stylised architectural motif, most likely a schematic representation of a castle or fortified tower with flanking turrets, a common heraldic device associated with the Kingdom of Leon and Castile. The structure rises from a flat base and is rendered in a bold, highly stylised manner characteristic of Romanesque-influenced medieval die engraving. The abbreviated Latin legend LEO appears in the lower field, referencing the Kingdom of Leon. The flan is irregular and the strike slightly off-centre, consistent with hand-hammered production of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alfonso VII inherited a fractured Iberian political map and spent much of his reign forcing tributary relationships on the neighboring Christian kingdoms — Navarre, Aragon, and Portugal all acknowledged his overlordship at various points, earning him the title Imperator totius Hispaniae formally crowned at León in 1135. Billon coinage of this reign circulated across a patchwork of dependent territories, which partly explains the wide geographic distribution of surviving examples relative to the thin individual mintages any single workshop would have produced.
