Beschrijving keerzijde Central field depicts a passant lion rampant facing left, set within a double linear square border, rendered in the crude but vigorous style typical of late 14th-century Castilian hammered coinage. The lion is shown with an open mouth and raised forepaw. A royal crown appears above the upper border. The peripheral legend, partially visible due to the irregular flan, encircles the design with a beaded outer border framing the entire composition.

Aanvullende informatie

Enrique II came to power through one of medieval Iberia's most prolonged civil wars, having spent nearly two decades fighting his half-brother Pedro I — the man history would split into "the Cruel" and "the Just" depending on which chronicle you trusted. The war ended at Montiel in 1374, where Pedro was killed in a tent, reportedly by Enrique's own hand. This dinero belongs to the monetary reorganization that followed, as Enrique attempted to stabilize a currency badly debased by wartime emergency issues from both sides of the conflict.

AB#498 is among the more commonly encountered dineros of his reign, though billon survivorship from fourteenth-century Castile remains uneven.
