Interesting fact

The 8 Maravedis coin from Spain, issued in 1837 during the reign of Isabel II, features a unique design element - a small shield with the letters "P" and "N" on either side of the coat of arms, which stands for "Pamplona" and "Nava" respectively, indicating the city and the mint where the coin was produced.
