Obverse description Royal inscription distributed across six horizontal lines within a plain field, each line separated by a beaded or raised border, reading ALFONSVS REX CASTELLE ET LEGIONIS. The lettering is rendered in bold Gothic-influenced Latin characters typical of mid-13th-century Castilian coinage. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded outer border. No figurative imagery appears; the legend itself constitutes the sole decorative and identificatory element. The inscription identifies the issuer as Alfonso X, King of Castile and Leon.
