| Obverse description | Royal legend arranged in six horizontal lines across the field, reading ALFONSVS REX CASTELLE ET LEGIONIS, identifying the issuing monarch as Alfonso X, King of Castile and Leon. The lettering is rendered in a Gothic-influenced Latin script typical of mid-13th century Castilian coinage. The flan is irregular in shape, as is characteristic of hammered medieval billon dineros of this period. There is no central device; the entire obverse surface is occupied by the inscribed text. |
