| Obverse description | Central field depicts a crowned king on horseback facing left, brandishing a sword aloft in his right hand and holding the reins with his left, rendered in the bold, flat relief characteristic of late medieval Castilian hammered coinage. The equestrian figure is enclosed within a plain inner circle. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, reading DOMINVS MICHI ADIVTOR ET NON, a devotional invocation derived from the Psalms. The irregular flan edge is typical of hand-struck medieval gold coinage. |
