Interesting fact
The ¼ Real "Quarto/Quartilla" coin from the State of San Luis Potosí, made of Copper and weighing 6.5g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of political and economic turmoil in Mexico. The coin was issued in 1862, just a few years after the Mexican War of Independence against Spain, and during a period of civil war and political instability in the country. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains its value and historical significance, making it a unique and interesting piece for collectors and historians.
