This specimen was lot 43462 in Stack's Bowers NYINC sale (New York, January 2023), where it sold for $60. The catalog description[1] noted, "SPAIN. 1/2 Centavo, 1867 OM. Barcelona Mint; mm: 8-pointed star. Isabel II. PCGS MS-65 Brown." This Spanish half centimo was struck in Madrid, Jubia, Seville, Segovia and Barcelona during the late years of Isabel II (1833-68). This type was struck 1865-68. In 1850, the twenty reales was reduced to 26.91 grams. This having proven unsatisfactory, the coinage was reformed again in 1864. The twenty reales was dropped in favor of a two escudos silver coin, reduced to 25.96 grams. One hundred centimos = one escudo. Unfortunately, the government, financially prostrate as usual, was unable to remint the old coins, which continued to circulate as before. The coinage would be reformed a third time in 1869.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
