Abstract
La aparición en San Marcial del Rubicón de un conjunto de monedas castellanas con una contramarca consistente en la letra B supone un hito en la moneda medieval de comienzos del siglo XV. De acuerdo con la documentación, Enrique III podría haber concedido a Jean de Béthencourt un poder monetario para favorecer su presencia en las Islas Canarias. La presencia de estas marcas en todas las monedas aparecidas en un contexto cronológicamente bien definido es compatible con un sistema de regulación del numerario en circulación.

The marks on all coins that appeared in a chronologically well-defined context are compatible with a system of regulation of the currency in circulation.
