Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Ducat coin from the Kingdom of Valencia is that it features a unique blend of Christian and Islamic influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a crowned portrait of King Ferdinand II and Queen Elisabeth I, while the reverse side features a depiction of the SS (Santa Sede) and a crescent moon, which symbolizes the Islamic influence in the region during that time. This blend of religious symbols reflects the cultural diversity and religious tolerance that existed in the Kingdom of Valencia during the 15th and 16th centuries.
