Interesting fact

The coin is a rare and historically significant piece, minted during the reign of King James I of Aragon in the 13th century. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Christian and Islamic influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of King James I, while the reverse side features a depiction of the Islamic crescent moon and star, which was a common motif in the art and architecture of the Islamic world at the time. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex history of the Kingdom of Aragon, which was a Christian kingdom that ruled over a large portion of the Iberian Peninsula, but also had significant Muslim and Jewish populations. This coin is a fascinating example of the cultural exchange and diversity that existed in medieval Europe.
