Additional information

The Second Republic's 1934 peseta pattern in copper never reached circulation. The political turbulence of the Republic's middle years — coalition governments collapsing in rapid succession, the October 1934 Asturian miners' uprising suppressed with brutal force — left currency reform perpetually deferred. Aureo catalogues this piece as reference 38, placing it among a small group of Republican-era patterns that document monetary intentions the government never stabilized long enough to execute.
