Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Denaro coin from the Kingdom of Sicily is that it features an image of King Federico III d'Aragona, who ruled the kingdom from 1296 to 1337. The coin was made of copper and weighs 0.62 grams. Despite its small size, the coin is a significant piece of history, as it represents the economic and political influence of the Aragonese dynasty in the Mediterranean region during the 14th century.
