Reverse description A full-color colorized portrait of a brown horse's head and neck, depicted in three-quarter view facing left, with a bridle clearly visible. The image is rendered in a photographic style applied to the coin's field, occupying the entirety of the central disk. The surrounding rim is plain steel, providing a stark contrast to the vivid naturalistic coloring of the equine motif.

Additional information

Lanzarote issued this piece as part of a wave of Spanish regional fantasy notes and coin-like issues that proliferated in the 2010s and 2020s, produced for collector circulation rather than any legal tender function. The "paper colorized" steel construction — a printed paper face bonded to a steel substrate — is a low-cost production method favored by private mints supplying the souvenir and exonumia market. No monetary authority backs the denomination.
