1990s depictors of Cortes and Pizarro (7)

I believe the answer is:

pesetas

(Other definitions for pesetas that I've seen before include "Old units of Spanish currency before euros" , "Former currency of Spain" , "Old Spanish money" , "old bread" , "Spanish bread no longer used" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
