💎 ABOUT THE COIN
Obverse: On the obverse of this cherished coin lies an intricate portrayal of the majestic Porch of Revellín, known as the Gate of Carlos V, perfectly paired with the iconic tower of the Santa María de Palacio church in Logroño. This stunning imagery speaks to the heart of La Rioja, capturing not only its architectural grandeur but also the profound historical significance of a region steeped in rich cultural heritage. Above this evocative scene, the inscription “ESPAÑA” proudly heralds its origin, accompanied by the year “1996,” a marker of the time this beautiful piece entered the world. Crafted by the talented engraver Begoña Castellanos García, this design artfully encapsulates the very essence of La Rioja, inviting all who behold it to appreciate its beauty and history.
Reverse: Flipping the coin reveals its lively reverse, where a spirited dancer on stilts joyfully embodies the vibrant traditions that pulse through the streets of La Rioja. Surrounding this joyous figure are clusters of grapes, a heartfelt nod to the region’s celebrated wine production and the bounty of its vineyards. The lettering “LA RIOJA” stands proudly, asserting the identity of this autonomous community, while “5 PTAS” and the mintmark “M” affirm its value as 5 Pesetas. The unabridged legend “5 Pesetas” completes the design, reflecting the lively spirit and rich cultural tapestry of Spain-each element a celebration of the joy and pride that defines this beloved region.
