Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of political turmoil in Spain. The Principality of Catalonia was a region that had been under Spanish rule for centuries, but in the early 19th century, there was a growing sense of nationalism and a desire for independence among the Catalan people. This coin was minted during the reign of Ferdinand VII, who was the king of Spain at the time, but it was produced specifically for use in the Principality of Catalonia. Despite the political tensions, the coin still bears the image of the Spanish king, highlighting the complex political dynamics at play during this time period.
