Interesting fact

The ¼ Real coin from the Dominican Republic, which was minted between 1844 and 1848, features a unique design element that sets it apart from other coins of its time. The coin's obverse (front) side features a portrait of the Dominican Republic's national hero, Juan Pablo Duarte, who played a key role in the country's struggle for independence from Haiti. This makes the coin a significant piece of Dominican Republic's history and a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
