Interesting fact

The 1 Real "Dieciocheno" coin from the Kingdom of Valencia (Spanish States) made of Silver (.924) weighing 2.3 g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the reign of Charles II, who was known as "The Bewitched" due to his poor health and perceived lack of intelligence. Despite this, he managed to rule for 36 years and his coinage still exists today as a piece of history.
