Spain 1848Seg 2 maravedis rev DSLR.jpg

The Spanish mints feature large issues of a variety of copper coins which did not circulate at all in the Spanish American colonies. In the predecimal system which obtained until 1847, 34 maravedis = one real of silver. This two maravedis was worth 1/17 of a real; history does not record the reason for the odd division. This type was struck in Jubia, Madrid, Segovia and Barcelona 1837-50 and was accompanied by copper one, four and eight maravedis. The type is not scarce and this mint is the commonest of the three.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: copper.

Catalog reference: Cayón-16578, KM 532.4.
