Dinero - Juana I

Juana I became Queen of Navarre at age three in 1274 following her father Henry I's sudden death — the coin dates entirely from her minority, when the kingdom was governed first by her mother Blanche of Artois and then, after 1276, under French Capetian guardianship. Navarre's absorption into the French royal orbit during these years effectively ended the kingdom's monetary independence for a generation.

Billon issues of this type circulated alongside French deniers tournois as French influence tightened, and local Navarrese coinage was increasingly subordinated to Capetian monetary policy before Juana's eventual marriage to the future Philip IV of France in 1284.
