| Additional information |
Equatorial Guinea's first coinage followed independence from Spain in October 1968, with the new government contracting the Istituto Poligrafico dello Stato in Rome to produce its inaugural series. The 150 Pesetas Guineanas denomination was part of that first issue — a high-face-value silver piece struck primarily for international collectors rather than domestic circulation, at a time when the country had no functioning mint infrastructure of its own.
