Comment
Charlemagne or Charles the Great was King of the Franks from 768, King of the Lombards from 774, and Emperor of the Romans from 800. During the Early Middle Ages, Charlemagne united the majority of western and central Europe. He was the first recognised emperor to rule from western Europe since the fall of the Western Roman Empire around three centuries earlier.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of materials. The coin is made of silver (.925) with a gold inlay, which adds an extra layer of value and aesthetic appeal to the coin. The use of gold and silver in the coin's design is a nod to the rich history of coinage in Andorra, which has a long tradition of minting coins with precious metals. Additionally, the coin's weight of 25 grams adds to its uniqueness, as it is not a standard weight for coins. All these features make this coin a truly distinctive and collectible piece.
