What is unusual about Pluto's moon Charon?

What is unusual is that Charon is the largest satellite relative to its planet in the solar system. And that Charon is more than half the size of Pluto. Actually the Charon/Pluto system might be better termed a binary system as the two rotate about a common center of gravity (their "barycenter" which does not lie inside either body but in space between them.
