This 5000 Pesetas note, dated 23 October 1979, was the first high-denomination note of the new democratic era and the first to carry the King’s portrait. Less than two years later, on 23 February 1981, Juan Carlos famously faced down an attempted military coup. The note was demonetized on 1 January 2002 when Spain adopted the euro.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e🎨\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesign Details:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe obverse features a large portrait of King Juan Carlos I in uniform and the royal coat of arms.
