This batch contains the regular circulating coins of Spain issued under King Juan Carlos I from 1982 until the major monetary reform of 1989. It excludes earlier issues with mint years inside star marks, focusing strictly on the standardized, heavier denominations of the modern peseta system (including 1, 5, 25, 50, 100, and 200 pesetas) minted from cupronickel, bronze, and aluminum-bronze before the transition to smaller planchets.

This batch covers the late circulating coins of the Spanish peseta under King Juan Carlos I, starting from the sweeping monetary reform of 1990 until the introduction of the Euro in 2002. It features the downsized, highly efficient planchet standards, showcasing distinct technical designs such as the holed 25 pesetas, the flower-shaped (11-sided) 50 pesetas, and various annual commemorative reverses minted in aluminum-bronze and aluminum.
