Interesting fact
The 8 Maravedis coin from Spain, minted during the reign of Isabel II (1836-1858), was part of a series of coins that were introduced to replace the old Spanish currency system, which was based on the peso and its fractions. The new system was based on the maravedi, which was equal to 1/100 of a peseta. This coin, in particular, was made of copper and weighed 10 grams, making it a significant coin in the series.
