The image next to the year 1881 has the wrong obverse. It should have the 2nd portrait of Alfonso XII. Instead it bears the KM687 obverse, 3rd portrait.

I tried a modification request, but I don't know how to do it because I can't find how to remove this picture.

There is no image next to 1881.

Hi, @SteveVDK was right; next to the coin was the incorrect 1881 image from a registered auction from the type:

 

 N#17627 

 

I just removed it (it must have been when @rsirian1  looked, what a coincidence, hehehe) and added a new image of the correct 1881 coin from an Aureó & Calicó auction.

 

N#14830

 

Interestingly, the first type of coin is extremely rare for 1881, while the second type is much more common. See the difference in the auction price in the following image:

 

 

Many thanks to both!
