Alphamagic square in Spanish

In a previous post I gave an example of an alphamagic square in English. This is a magic square such that if you replace each number with the letter count when spelling out the word, you get another magic square.

I wondered whether I could find an alphamagic square in Spanish, so I wrote a script to look. I found two. (Plus there are eight rotations and reflections of each.)

The first is the following:

spanish_alphamagic_1.png

When spelled out in Spanish the numbers are:

spanish_alphamagic_1w.png

And the number of letters in each cell gives:

spanish_alphamagic_1f.png

Here's a second example:

spanish_alphamagic_2.png

Spelled out in Spanish:

spanish_alphamagic_2w.png

Sum of the letters:

spanish_alphamagic_2f.png

If my script is correct, these are the only examples (besides their rotations and reflections) for numbers between 1 and 200.
