| Reverse description | A passant lion occupying the central field, enclosed within a square linear border, rendered in a schematic style characteristic of medieval Castilian hammered coinage. The lion faces left with raised forepaw, its mane and body details indicated by simple punched or incised lines. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central square, reading LEGIONIS in reference to the Kingdom of León. The flan is irregular in shape, as is common for small-denomination billon issues of this period. |
