Comment
NR stands for Nuevo Reino Mint (another name for the Casa de Moneda de Colombia in Bogota)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Real "Cuartillo" coin from Colombia is that it was minted during a time of political and economic turmoil in the country. The coin was issued during the reign of Ferdinand VII, who was the King of Spain from 1808 to 1833, and the King of Colombia from 1810 to 1819. During this time, Colombia was still a Spanish colony, and the country was facing challenges such as political instability, economic struggles, and conflicts with neighboring countries. Despite these challenges, the Cuartillo coin remained a widely used and popular form of currency in Colombia, and it continues to be a valuable collector's item to this day.
