Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ¼ Real 1832-1834 coin from Chile is that it was minted during a time of political and economic turmoil in the country. The coin was introduced as part of a decimalization effort, replacing the old Spanish colonial system of pesos and reales with a new system based on the Chilean peso. Despite the challenges of the time, the coin remained in circulation for over a decade and is still sought after by collectors today.
