Abstract
A lo largo del siglo XVIII se produjeron en las Islas Canarias graves problemas
m
onetarios derivados de la moneda en circulación en el archipiélago, derivados tanto de las
falsificaciones como del mantenimiento en la circulación de monedas batidas en los siglos
anteriores. Asimismo, la falta de numerario menudo favoreció la entrada de
moneda de vellón
provincial procedente de Santo Domingo y Puerto Rico. Tras varios intentos para la
estabilización del numerario y el recurso al resello, finalmente, en una operación en sus
primeras fases secreta, se sustituyó el circulante por moneda de n
uevo cuño y se expidió la
antigua moneda en circulación a Sevilla para ser reacuñada
Throughout the eighteenth century occurred in the Canary Islands ser ious monetary problems because of the currency in circulation in the archipelago, resulting from both counterfeiting and the maintenance in circulation of coins minted in previous centuries. Also, the lack of cash often favored the entry of provincial curr ency fleece from Santo Domingo and Puerto Rico. After several attempts to stabilize the currency and the use of counterseals, finally, in a secret operation in its early stages, the current was replaced by newly minted coins and old currency in circulation was issued to Seville to be re - minted
