A coin that has aroused quite a lot of expectation both in regular collectors and, above all, in people who belong or have belonged to The Legion, is the piece that has been minted by the National Mint and Stamps - Royal Mint to commemorate the "Centennial of the Spanish Legion", a coin that will be issued during this month of June and from which I can already show you how it will look.
The piece made of 925 silver in Proof quality (the highest quality in the minting of a coin) has a face of 10 euros and a metric of 8 reales.

The emblem of the Legion designed by Captain Infantry D. Justo Pardo Ibáñez is composed of halberd, musket and crossbow crossed and on such weapons one Corona Real. It is inspired by the weapons used by the Tercios who, in the service of the King of Spain, fought during the 16th and 17th centuries, conquering and defending the Empire.

My recommendation, if you are going to acquire this coin is that you do not delay it, it is expected that the circulation of 6,000 copies can be exhausted in not long, so if we postpone its purchase it is easy for us to have to pay a higher price later.
As you are sure to ask me where you can buy it, I go ahead and recommend two of the best numismatics in our country. Numismatic Dracma and Filatélia Carrasquilla although they have not yet announced it on their respective websites, at the time of writing this, you can ask for it. They are great professionals.
The Spanish Legion is an elite military force led and created in 1920 by José Millán-Astray, framed within the Spanish Army's Land Force. With the initial name of "Third of Foreigners". The objective was to face the toughness of the fighting in the Rif War (Morocco), for which the replacement troops were not prepared. The date of the enlistment of the first legionary, a thirty-year-old man named Marcelo Villeval Gaitán, on September 20, 1920, is considered the official founding date.
