This unusual object is an ashtray made up of six Spanish coins minted in Madrid in the 19th century: three 50 Centimos coins and as many 5 Pesetas coins. Two of the three 50 centimos were minted in 1892 and 1904. The date of the third one is not visible due to the soldering. Issued during the reign of Alfonso XIII, they all feature his portrait, while their flans have been folded into a U-shape.The three coins of 5 Pesetas were minted under the reigns of Amedeo I in 1871, Alfonso XII in 1885 and Alfonso XIII in 1899. The three coins feature the portraits of the kings at the top and have been folded so that their obverse is perfectly concave.A central weld joins the three Pesetas placed in a triangle and connected at the top of the sovereigns' heads at 12 o'clock. This welded section is decorated with a triangle with serrated edges that follows the border of the three coins. On the reverse, the three flans are linked by a weld on the border at the level of the denomination visible on the reverse: each shield thus points towards the center of the ashtray. On the reverse, the 50 Centimos coins are welded at the center of their shields to the Pesetas border, at 6 o'clock on the obverse, at the level of the sovereigns' busts and in the same direction as the latter.On the reverse, three slightly flattened, spherical feet are placed at the center of the junction between the shield and the crown above it.These six coins, which vary in condition from very good to extremely good, have a beautiful gray patina. Their flans, neatly folded, reveal the pattern and inscriptions on the edges, providing a pleasant additional embellishment and complete uniformity to the object.The 5 Pesetas, with their 37mm diameter, make elegant containers for ashes, while the centimos, smaller in size, are ideal to hold cigarettes.Beyond its practicality, this ashtray is a real masterpiece, pleasing to the eye, skilfully crafted and showcasing the coins that enhance them in an unusual way!
