Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Venezuela. The Republican coinage was introduced in 1811, following the Venezuelan War of Independence, and was used until 1834. The ¼ Real coin was one of the smallest denominations in the Republican coinage system and was made of copper, which was a common material for coins at that time. Despite its small value, this coin is a valuable piece of history and a reminder of the country's struggle for independence.
