Comment
Latin legendInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the joint effigies of King Joanna I and her husband, Charles I, who ruled the Kingdom of Aragon together from 1516 until their deaths in 1555. This coin was minted during their reign and is a rare example of a coin that features both a male and female ruler on the same side.
