You said in your post that the star said 53, but it's actually 58. If that was just a typo, then it seems like if your coin says Una Libre Grande instead of Una Grande Libre, you might have the good one.

 

Spain, 1957 (58 star), 50 Pesetas, KM#788, metal-copper nickel, mintage-21,471,000.

If it's the common type:
grade/value

VF20-$0.75 XF40-$1.25 MS60-$4.75 MS63-$6.50

If it's the rarer of this type:
grade/value

F-$150.00 VF-$275.00 XF-$400.00 MS60-$700.00 MS63-$1,000.00

not sure which is yours yet ?
grade ? rim damage ? F-VF

 

Worth getting checked at a coin shop or at a coin show.

 

According to this site it's not the valuable one:

Looks like 58?

 

If you click on the link provided above (Post #5) you'll notice that the expensive coin has the letters "BA" replacing the star on the left side of the reverse. The coin with 58 stamped on the star has a mintage of 21,471,000 while the one stamped BA has an estimated mintage of 43,000.

 

I'm a bit more interested in my edge at this point.

It appears the one with "UNA LIBRE GRANDE" on the edge is more valuable than the coin with "UNA GRANDE LIBRE" edge lettering.

 

I have a couple of these I should check.

 

The edge with "UNA GRANDE LIBRE" is the common one. The rare one reads "UNA - LIBRE - GRANDE"
