Porcelain Money
Everything he touched turned to porcelain.
It wasn't like a wish turned wrong, just a straight up curse, placed on him by unlucky stars, or an aggrieved warlock, or just dumb luck.
He learned to live with after a while. It was inconvenient, but he managed to eat by having people gently place food into his throat and swallowing without chewing. Soups mostly.
Of course his love life was non-existent. Porcelain people in various stages of undress wasn't much of a fetish.
The good news was being King allowed him to declare porcelain as the only form of legal currency.
