Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of King Ferdinand I of Aragon, who also known as Ferdinand of Antequera, was the king of Aragon, Valencia, Majorca, Sardinia and Corsica, and Count of Barcelona from 1412 until his death in 1416. He was the founder of the royal house of Trastámara, and his reign marked the beginning of a new era for the Kingdom of Aragon, which would become a major power in the Mediterranean during the 15th century.
