Comments
Part of the 13-piece collection "Extremeños en América" distributed by the Hoy newspaper commemorating the role of some Extremaduran personalities in the Conquista and colonization of America. The collection was coordinated by the then Sorbonne Professor and CEXECI (Centro Extremeño de Estudios y Cooperación con Iberoamérica) director Miguel Rojas Mix (1934-2022). Each medal was to be sold together with each Sunday newspaper between March 5th and June 4th, 1995, for the price of 400 pesetas. The announced mintage was 30000 with a possible extension according to demand. The dies were to be destroyed after distribution of the collection.
