Interesting fact
The 1 Euro coin featuring Juan Carlos I (2nd type; 2nd map) from Spain has a unique design element that sets it apart from other Euro coins. The coin's outer ring features a map of Europe, but it's not just any ordinary map. The map is actually a projection of Europe onto a Mercator projection, which is a type of map projection that was developed by the Flemish cartographer Gerardus Mercator in the 16th century. This projection allows for a more accurate representation of the Earth's surface, making it a fascinating feature on a coin.
