Portrait of Alfonso XIII as a 1-year-old infant. Alfonso XIII was declared king at his birth on May 17, 1886.

The initials of the assayers and scale judge are "PGV." They should have been "MPM." The reverse-side dies for 1887 and 1896 were inadvertently switched on the 19-62 restrikes. Noted in Calicó and Aledón.
