1 Peseta - II Republic Pattern, copper

The Second Republic's monetary reform program generated a flurry of pattern activity at the FNMT through the early 1930s, as the new government sought to replace coinage associated with the Bourbon monarchy. This copper peseta pattern of 1934 was never adopted — the Republic ultimately retained silver-alloy compositions for the denomination, and by 1936 the Civil War had rendered any coherent monetary policy moot.

Aureo catalog reference 37 places it among a small group of documented Republican patterns, most of which exist in single-digit quantities.
