Historical Insight:
The coin belongs to Spain’s late peseta series, just before the euro’s introduction in 2002. The “frozen date” system meant that coins often bore an earlier official date (1980 in this case) while the star mark indicated the true mint year (here, 1982).

Collecting Note:
Though common in circulation, pesetas with specific star dates like 82 are of interest to specialists tracking Spain’s nuanced minting system.
