<p>[QUOTE="panzerman, post: 4296354, member: 77704"]In 1700 King Carlos II of Spain died childless/ but in his will decreed that Philip grandson of Carlos II half sister Maria Theresia/ first wife of Louis XIV of France, would be first in line to succeed him. Charles (future HRE Charles VI) was second in line. Great Britain, Netherlands and the Holy Roman Empire wanted no Bourbon to become King of Spain. Philip was crowned King, and as a result the War of the Spanish Succession began in 1701 and ended in 1714. In the end 400,000 people died over nothing. This coin is from Colonial Mexico City Mint.[ATTACH=full]1093599[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
