Interesting fact
The ½ Escudo coin from the Kingdom of Majorca (Spanish States) made of Gold (.917) weighing 1.7 g is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Philip V, who was the first Bourbon king of Spain and ruled from 1700 to 1746. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign to promote trade and commerce in the Spanish colonies.
