Interesting fact
The 1 Euro coin featuring King Philip VI of Spain, minted between 2015 and 2024, has a unique feature that sets it apart from other Euro coins. The coin's outer ring is made of a nickel brass alloy, while the inner core is made of copper-nickel. This bi-metallic design was chosen to reduce the cost of production and to make the coin more durable. The coin's weight of 7.5 grams is also noteworthy, as it is slightly heavier than other Euro coins.
