I believe the first coins in Spain were Greek coins in the 5th C. BC. One example was called an 'obol'.

How do you find where a coin is from?

Usually a coin has the country on it somewhere. You might not be able to read it, because unless it is from an English speaking country, the words on the coin are not in English. For example, Spanish coins say Espana on them, not Spain, because the word Spain is in English, and people in Spain call their country Espana. You can find all the information you need in a coin catalog. Good luck.
