| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized Gothic castle with three towers, the central tower being the tallest, rendered in the heraldic tradition characteristic of Castilian medieval coinage. The castle is shown with a doorway at the base and flanking turrets, representing the arms of Castile. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, reading ENRICVS REX CASTELLE, attributing the issue to Enrique III as King of Castile. The legend is separated from the central device by a beaded inner circle. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, typical of hammered billon coinage of this period. |
