Dearborn Moderator United States 102850 Posts	Posted 10/12/2024 10:09 am @Wannabfree: your Azores to Spain 25 Pesetas , 1957 coin is actually a 1970 dated coin. Look at the little star and you will see a tiny '70' in it. That is the year minted for your coin. Spain did something weird and I think made many dies in 1957 and then used them for consecutive years and counterstamped the current mint year in the star. On some years there would be 2 stars - one would have the 19 and the other of the current year. Have a look here on Numista - it shows it quite well.. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces778.html Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Very confusing. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

I did not realize that Spain had initiated that practice of "STAR Dating". I will not likely post that coin again, unless I do it with an explanation, although, if I post it as a 1970, many other members would correctly point out that the coin is dated 1957.
