Comment
Francisco José de Goya y Lucientes (30 March 1746 – 16 April 1828) was a Spanish romantic painter and printmaker. He is considered the most important Spanish artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. His paintings, drawings, and engravings reflected contemporary historical upheavals and influenced important 19th- and 20th-century painters. Goya is often referred to as the last of the Old Masters and the first of the moderns.
Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted in a unique way. The coin was created using a technique called "Blind Man's Bluff," where the minting process was done without the use of dies, and instead, the coin was struck between two blank discs, resulting in a unique, irregular shape. This process was used to create a limited number of coins, making them truly unique and rare.
