Spain. Alfonso XII. 2 Pesetas + 50 Céntimos 1869/1870/1904/1910 (4 monedas) (No reserve price)
This set of four Spanish coins includes denominations of 2 Pesetas and 50 Céntimos from the years 1869, 1870, 1904, and 1910, spanning a transformative period in Spanish history. The late 19th and early 20th centuries in Spain witnessed major political changes, including the transition from monarchy under Alfonso XII and Alfonso XIII to the establishment of the First Spanish Republic and eventually the Restoration. The 2 Pesetas coin was an important silver denomination used extensively for commerce, while the 50 Céntimos coin, a fractional unit, facilitated smaller transactions. These coins typically feature portraits of reigning monarchs or national symbols and reveal much about Spain’s currency evolution and economic conditions. Collectors find such a mixed group appealing for its representation of different political eras, minting styles, and monetary reforms within a relatively short but historically rich timeframe.
