Medieval Spanish 1 Blanca, or ½ maravedí, attributed to the Catholic Monarchs type of Ferdinand and Isabella. The design features the crowned Gothic F and Y monograms. This denomination was struck in billon, a very low-silver copper alloy, beginning with the 1497 monetary reform; later issues continued in the monarchs’ names, so the exact striking date and mint cannot be confirmed from the worn details. * Raw and ungraded * Heavily circulated with weak legends and substantial detail loss * Irregular hammered flan with rough surfaces and edge loss * Mint and assayer are not identifiable from the photos * Exact coin pictured
