Is Bronze...these coins were brought by the Spanish soldiers who fought in Morocco in the Nineteenth Century (General Prim, the Battle of Castillejos, etc. ..). I guess that for people of the time this coin would have its equivalence with other of the peninsula and since the money was worth what the metal ....¿ why not use it?.
Muchisimo .... They are very common.
In 1860, General Prim army defeated the Moroccans in the "Battle of Castillejos. Fall as economic compensation after signing the "Treaty of Wad-Ras" (actually the allowance was 400 million reale, an amount was never paid at all) the Star of David appears on the flag of Morocco in onor to Sephardís ... the coin is copper and show him one of the molds in which they were made.
