Interesting fact
This coin was part of a series of pattern coins minted in Mexico in the 1830s, which were intended to be used as a new currency for the country. However, due to various political and economic factors, the coins were never officially adopted, and only a small number of patterns were minted. As a result, the Pattern ¼ Real (Pattern) 1838 from Mexico made of Brass weighing 9.06g is a rare and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
