Interesting fact
The 1 Escudo coin was minted during the reign of King Philip V of Spain, who was the first Spanish monarch to rule under the House of Bourbon. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign that featured a new design, which included a more realistic portrait of the king and a new legend that read "PHILIPVS V D G HISPANORVM REX" (Philip V, by the grace of God, King of the Spaniards). This design change was significant because it marked a departure from the traditional designs used by previous Spanish monarchs and reflected the influence of European artistic trends of the time.
