Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Maravedis - Ferdinand VII (Jubia mint; 3rd portrait) 1824-1827 coin from Spain is that it was minted during a time of political and economic turmoil in the country. The Jubia mint, where the coin was produced, was established in 1809 during the Peninsular War, which was a conflict between Spain and Napoleon's France. The mint was set up to produce coins for the Spanish military, and the 2 Maravedis coin was one of the denominations produced during this time. Despite the challenges faced during its production, the coin remains a valuable piece of Spanish numismatic history.
