Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the joint effigies of King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Elizabeth I of Castile, who ruled together as co-monarchs of the Kingdom of Aragon from 1479 until their deaths in 1504 and 1505, respectively. This coin was minted during their reign and is a rare example of a coin that features both a king and a queen on the same side.
