Comment

The Series we have called “Face Value Exchange Series“ is made up of the issue of one coin each year (in some exceptional years two were issued) from 1994 to the present. We grouped these coins into a single series since they all have the characteristic that, despite being made of silver, they could be obtained at the Bank of Spain at the face value of the coin and all these coins have the same dimensional and composition characteristics (Silver (.925) • 27 g • ⌀ 40 mm). It started with the Peseta System in 1994, with a face value of 2000 Pesetas (approximately 12 Euros) and continued with the Euro System with face values ​​of 12 Euro (2002-2010), 20 Euro (2010-2011), 30 Euro (2012-2021) and 40 Euro (2022-date).

The design of the reverse appeared in the first national issue of pesetas of 1869.

Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it was the last issue of the Peseta currency before Spain adopted the Euro as its official currency in 2002.
