Old Spain.

That is the guy responsible for the Dutch 80 year war and the slaughter of thousands of Flemish civilians in Antwerp.

Nice guy indeed.

I have eight Spanish coins dated 1618 to 1729 in NGC and PCGS holders graded AU-58 to MS-66. This consists of one 1618 4M MS-62, two 1/2R, two 1R and three 2R. I'm still looking to buy a 4R and 8R and will also buy the other copper or bronze denominations if I can find them in high enough grades. There aren't many of them.

 

Here are a couple of unusual Spanish provincial coins, both Ferdinand VII

Gerona 1808 - 1 Duro (5 pesetas) KM#10
