Hi Tanit!

Your first coin shows the bust of Ínigo López de Mendoza, Marquis de Mondeja. He played an important role in the campaign of the Spains against the Moroccans AD 1569. He was Governor of the Alhambra in Sevilla (1543 - 1580). Sorry, about the rev. depiction I don't know nothing. But perhaps it is is scene from this campaign?
