| Additional information |
Spain's "Aviones Míticos" (Legendary Aircraft) series launched in 2020 as a civilian collector program with no monetary circulation intent — the 1.5 euro denomination exists solely to give the pieces legal tender status without interfering with standard coinage. The C-130 Hercules has been a backbone of the Ejército del Aire since Spain received its first examples in 1965 under a bilateral defense agreement with the United States, part of the broader Franco-era pact that traded American base access on Spanish soil for military hardware and economic aid.
Spanish C-130s flew humanitarian and military logistics missions through multiple decades, including operations in the Balkans during the 1990s.
