Interesting fact
The ¼ Real "Quarto/Quartilla" coin from the State of San Luis Potosí, made of Copper and weighing 8.1 grams, is interesting because it was minted during a time of political and economic turmoil in Mexico. The coin was issued in 1867, just a few years after the end of the Mexican-American War and during the reign of Emperor Maximilian I, who was installed by the French government. This coin is a symbol of the complex history of Mexico and its relationships with foreign powers.
