Interesting fact
The 1 Escudo coin from the Kingdom of Valencia (Spanish States) made of Gold (.911) weighing 3.3 g is an interesting piece of history because it was minted during the reign of Charles I (also known as Charles V), who was the first king to unite the crowns of Castile, Aragon, and Navarre, thereby becoming the first monarch of Spain. This coin is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region and a reminder of the powerful reign of Charles I.
