Aanvullende informatie

Alfonso XIII was an infant king — born to a posthumous throne in 1886, he reigned under his mother María Cristina's regency until 1902. These gold 20 pesetas issues span the catastrophic final years of that regency, bracketing the disasters of 1898: the Spanish-American War stripped Spain of Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines in a matter of months, collapsing the colonial fiscal system that had partly underpinned the peseta's gold backing.

The "3rd portrait" designation tracks the aging of the boy king across successive effigy updates — a numismatic record of a child growing up while his empire dissolved around him.
