Interesting fact

The coin is a rare and interesting piece of history. One fascinating fact about it is that it was issued during the reign of King James I of Aragon, who was also known as James the Conqueror. He was a powerful and influential king who expanded his kingdom's territories through military conquests and strategic alliances, and this coin was minted during his reign as a symbol of the county's wealth and prosperity.
