Essay about an unpublished coin of Queen Urraca minted in Segovia
Abstract
For many years, the rarest known issue of all those minted by Queen Urraca was the one in which said sovereign was depicted in profile effigy and looking to the left. It was always thought that said monetary series had only been manufactured in the city of Leon. However, now, with the appearance of an unpublished coin produced in Segovia, it is not only confirmed that Doña Urraca stuck currency in Castile in the last years of her reign, but also closes with it another co-reing issue made by her son, King Alfonso VII, in the same workshops, but in his own name.
