Interesting fact

The 50 Centimos coin from L'Ametlla del Vallès (Province of Barcelona) is a rare example of a coin that was issued during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). The coin was minted in 1937, during a time when many Spanish cities and towns were issuing their own currency due to the lack of official currency from the central government. The coin's design features the town's coat of arms and was made of aluminum, which was a common material used for coins during this time period. Despite its rarity, the coin is still widely collected and can be found in many numismatic collections around the world.
