Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Real coin from the Kingdom of Valencia (Spanish States) is that it was minted during the reign of Charles II, who was known as "The Bewitched" due to his physical and mental disabilities. Despite his challenges, Charles II was able to rule for 25 years and implement various reforms, including the creation of a new coinage system that included the ½ Real coin.
