Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Ramon Berenguer I, who was the Count of Barcelona and ruled the County of Barcelona from 1035 to 1076. This coin was part of a series of coins that were minted during his reign, and it features an image of the Count on one side and a cross on the other. The use of silver in the coin's composition was a significant choice, as it was a valuable and durable metal that was widely used in coinage during the Middle Ages. The fact that this coin has survived to the present day is a testament to the enduring legacy of Ramon Berenguer I and the County of Barcelona.
