Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Maravedi coin is that it was used as a form of currency during the reign of Henry IV of Castile, who ruled from 1454 to 1474. The coin was minted in the city of Murcia, which was an important center of trade and commerce during that time. Despite its small weight of 2.4 grams, the Maravedi was a widely accepted form of payment and played a significant role in the economy of the Kingdom of Castile and Leon.
