It seems all kings and emperors in the past had beard. Too less a king or emperor before 20th Century did not have beard. Was it a tradition to have beard so he could be king?

 Charles V of Spain commemorated on a silver 2000-peseta cin issued by Spain in the year 2000. I've kept the coin sealed in the plastic envelope in which it was distributed by the banks - the marks are on the envelope rather than the coin. |
