The first 1-peseta coins bearing the portrait of Francisco Franco were issued in 1947.
Cupro-nickel 5 pesetas followed in 1949.
In 1949, holed cupro-nickel 50 céntimos were introduced, followed by aluminium-bronze ​2 ¹⁄₂ pesetas in 1954, cupro-nickel 25 and 50 pesetas in 1958 and smaller aluminium 10 and 25 céntimos in 1959.
Silver 100 pesetas were issued between 1966 and 1969, with aluminium 50 céntimos introduced in 1967.
In 1966 Franco's profile was redesigned to depict a more current representation of the leader.

Following the accession of King Juan Carlos, there were a few changes.
The replacement of Franco's portrait with that of Juan Carlos on the 50 céntimos and 1 peseta in 1975 and the addition of a cupro-nickel 100 pesetas in 1976.
10 céntimos were discontinued.
However, more significant changes occurred to each coin in 1982.
Following this redesign the 50 céntimos was discontinued, with aluminium replacing aluminum-bronze in the 1 peseta.
A 2-peseta coin was also introduced featuring a map of Spain, though this denomination never became popular.
More importantly, nickel brass 100 pesetas were introduced.
The redesign centered around the 1982 FIFA World Cup and depicted football-related themes on the 1, 5, 25, 50, and 100 pesetas.
Shortly afterwards, the large cupronickel 100 pesetas was replaced by a smaller aluminium bronze coin, which also replaced the 100 pesetas banknote.
Cupronickel 10 pesetas was introduced in 1983, a denomination that had previously not been issued for many decades.
This preceded a wholesale redesign in all circulating Spanish coins and abandonment of the "star" dating system.
Cupronickel 200 pesetas were introduced in 1986, followed by aluminium bronze 500 pesetas in 1987.

In 1989 the biggest changes came; the size of the 1-peseta coin was significantly reduced, however not discontinued (making it the smallest, lightest circulating coin in Western Europe and perhaps the world at that time).
The 2-peseta coin was discontinued.
Smaller aluminum bronze 5 pesetas were introduced, and reduced aluminium bronze 25 pesetas were also introduced which had a hole in the center.
Smaller 50-peseta coins were also issued the same year in cupronickel with the distinct Spanish flower shape that would eventually be used by many countries, most notably the 20-cent coin of the euro.
At the same time, the 200-peseta coin was made larger and included an identifiable edge with incuse lettering.
In 1999, a laser-etched hologram was added to the 500-peseta coin as a security feature to help discourage counterfeiting.
During this period, all coins except the 1 and 500 pesetas went through a commemorative redesign each year, in a similar vein to the U.S. State commemorative quarters program until their discontinuation in 2001 preceding the introduction of the euro common currency.

Until 19 June 2001, the following coins were minted by the Spanish Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre:
The 50-peseta coins issued between 1990 and 2000 were the first that featured the Spanish flower shape.
