Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Mites coin from the Spanish Netherlands is that it was minted during the reign of Charles V, who was the first king to unite the crowns of Castile, Aragon, and Navarre, making him the first king of Spain. This coin was minted during a time of great change and expansion for the Spanish Empire, and it features an image of Charles V on one side and the coat of arms of the Duchy of Brabant on the other. Despite being a small denomination coin, it is a valuable piece of history for collectors and historians.
