Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1675 Spanish 2 Reales coin is that it was minted during the reign of Charles II, who was known as "The Bewitched" due to his physical and mental disabilities. Despite his challenges, Charles II was able to rule Spain for 30 years and implement various reforms, including the creation of a new coinage system that included the 2 Reales coin.
