Interesting fact
The Real coin from the Kingdom of Valencia, made of silver and weighing 3.3g, is interesting because it was issued during the reign of King John I of Aragon, who ruled from 1387 to 1396. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin during his reign and features the king's name and title on one side, and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Valencia on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant choice, as it was a valuable and durable metal that was widely accepted as a medium of exchange. The fact that this coin was issued during a specific time period and features the king's name and title makes it a unique piece of history that can provide insight into the economic and political climate of the time.
