Interesting fact

The 80 Reales - Isabel II (Small head) 1841-1844 coin from Spain was minted during a time of great change in the country. The coin was introduced in 1841, just a year after the death of King Ferdinand VII, who had ruled Spain since 1808. His death led to a period of political instability, as his daughter Isabella II was only a child at the time and a regency council had to be established to rule in her place. This coin was minted during this time of transition, and its production was likely affected by the political and economic changes that were taking place in Spain during this period.
