Real - Enrique IV Seville

Enrique IV's coinage is among the most politically fraught in Castilian history. His reign saw noble factions so hostile to royal authority that in 1465 they staged the "Farce of Ávila" — a mock deposition in which a straw effigy of the king was stripped of its crown and cast down. The monetary system was equally contested; Enrique authorized so many mints and so many private contractors that counterfeiting and debasement became endemic, prompting formal complaints from the Cortes repeatedly through the 1460s.

The Seville mint was among the most productive of his authorized houses, its output identifiable by the S mintmark.
