Interesting fact
The Real coin from the Kingdom of Majorca, issued during the reign of James III (1324-1343), features a unique design element - a small cross pattée (a cross with arms that are narrow at the center and broaden towards the ends) on the obverse (front) side of the coin. This cross is believed to have been added to the coin's design to symbolize the king's devotion to Christianity and his role as a defender of the faith.
