Coins of King Afonso III (1248-1279)
The coins of King Afonso III, known as “the Boulonnais”, belong to a period of political consolidation and administrative reform in Portugal. He ruled from 1248 to 1279, strengthening royal authority after the deposition of Sancho II and promoting territorial organization. His coinage continued the medieval Portuguese monetary system, with silver dinheiros and half‑dinheiros minted in bolhão alloy, featuring simple designs with crosses and inscriptions. These issues reflect the kingdom’s economic stabilization and are valued by collectors for their rarity and their importance in the development of early Portuguese numismatics.
