| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central device depicting a stylized tree or plant with branching foliage, surmounted by a cross pattée above. The design is enclosed within a beaded or linear inner circle. The surrounding legend reads TOLETVM with a cross stop, identifying the mint city of Toledo. The overall composition is characteristic of the crude, informal style of 12th-century Castilian hammered billon coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Alfonso VIII was thirteen years old when he finally wrested effective control of Castile from the competing regency factions that had spent his childhood fighting over the kingdom. The dated dinero — extraordinarily rare for Iberian medieval coinage of this period, which almost never carried explicit year markings — is thought to commemorate that consolidation of royal authority. The MOMECA corpus places this type among the earliest datable Castilian billon issues with any confidence.
