Interesting fact
The Denier (Granollers) coin from the Principality of Catalonia has an interesting feature. It was made with Billon, which is an alloy of silver and other metals, in this case, .250 silver. This means that while the coin appears to be silver, it is actually a combination of metals, making it a unique and interesting piece of history.
