Interesting fact
The Denier coin from the Kingdom of Majorca, which was issued during the reign of Philip V (1700-1746), was made of Billon, a type of alloy that consists of a mixture of copper, silver, and other metals. Despite being made of a relatively inexpensive material, the coin was still considered a standard circulation coin and was widely used in the Spanish States during that time.
