This Spanish half centimo was struck in Jubia during the late years of Isabel II (1833-68). This type was also struck in Madrid, Segovia, Barcelona and Seville 1864-68. Instead of the traditional mintmarks the issues are distinguished by six, seven or eight pointed stars on the reverse (for Madrid, Seville and Barcelona). In 1850, the 20 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 and the branch mints closed, including Jubia.
Recorded mintage: unknown but common.
Specification: copper, 1.25 g, 15.4-15.7 mm diameter.
