An incomplete and very heavily clipped post-medieval gold 1-Escudo coin of Queen Joanna of Castile (AD 1504-1555) and Aragon (AD 1516-1555)—known historically as Queen Joanna the Mad—and King Charles I of Spain (AD 1516-1556), eventually Emperor Charles V, king of Germany and Italy (AD 1519-1556). The coin would have been minted between AD 1516-1556; however, because of the clipping no mint mark remains. Obverse: The central Cross of Jerusalem remains, with some elements of the quatrefoil with inverted leaf terminals visible. Reverse: A fragmented portion of the Crowned…

A post-medieval gilded copper-alloy contemporary copy of a Joanna (Queen of Castile and Aragon) and Charles V (1506-16) gold escudo struck after the death of Joanna when Charles became Charles I of Spain (1516-1558). Although a copy, the coin appears to be based on the gold escudo from the mint at Seville (with an S to the right of the shield on the obverse) of a type minted in 1535 (Clemente and Cayon 3147-8). Ref: Clemente and Cayon 2005: 473-4.
