EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print showcases a rare example of a Castilian real de a 4 coin from the period of the Catholic Monarchs, Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon (1474-1516). The coin, struck in Sevilla during the late 15th century, is a testament to the prosperous medieval kingdom of Castile and its economic power during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs. The obverse side of the coin features the effigy of the Catholic Monarchs, with Isabella depicted wearing a royal mantle and Ferdinand shown in military attire. The reverse side displays the Castilian coat of arms, consisting of the Pascual crown, the castle and lion emblem, and the motto "Plus Ultra" (Beyond). This beautiful coin is part of the Numismatic Cabinet of Catalonia, located in Barcelona, Spain. The cabinet is a renowned institution dedicated to the study and preservation of numismatic collections, including coins, medals, and related materials. The collection showcases the rich history of Catalonia and its connections to the broader European numismatic context. The real de a 4 was a common coin during the late medieval period in Spain, with a value equivalent to four reales or one silver maravedí. Its design and iconography reflect the political and artistic influences of the time, making it an essential piece for collectors, historians, and philatelists interested in medieval Spain and its numismatic heritage.
