peseta
English
Etymology
From Spanish peseta, from peso (“coin or weight”).
Noun
peseta (plural pesetas)
- The former currency of Spain and Andorra, divided into 100 céntimos.
- 1907, Harold Bindloss, chapter 31, in The Dust of Conflict[1]:
- The task was more to Appleby's liking than the one he had anticipated, and it was necessary, since the smaller merchants in Cuba and also in parts of Peninsular Spain have no great confidence in bankers, and prefer a packet of golden onzas or a bag of pesetas to the best accredited cheque.
