Beschrijving keerzijde Central field depicts a lion rampant to the left enclosed within a plain square border, rendered in the bold, stylized heraldic tradition characteristic of medieval Castilian coinage. The lion is shown with an open mouth and clearly defined mane, standing on its hind legs with forelegs raised. Four castles occupy the angles outside the central square, alternating with the lions of the obverse in the traditional quartered arms of Castile and León. The peripheral legend in Gothic Latin script reads ET LEGIONIS, identifying the Kingdom of León, and runs along the coin's irregular outer edge.

Aanvullende informatie

Alfonso XI ordered a sweeping monetary reform in 1331, convening the Cortes at Burgos specifically to address the debasement crisis that had plagued Castilian coinage through his minority. The dineros issued from Toledo under this reform were part of a deliberate attempt to restore public confidence in billon currency after years of wildly inconsistent silver content from competing mints.

The Toledo mint's output from this specific reform window is brief — the reordering of mint ordinances by 1332 curtailed the issue's production run to under two years.
