One interesting fact about the ½ Real (Vicente Guerrero - Insurgent Countermarked Coinage) ND (1816-1821) from Mexico is that it was minted during a time of political turmoil in the country. The coin was issued by the insurgent government of Vicente Guerrero, who was a leader in the Mexican War of Independence against Spain. The coin's design features the image of Guerrero on one side and the Mexican coat of arms on the other, and it was minted in silver, which was a valuable and widely used metal at the time. Despite its historical significance, the coin is relatively rare and highly sought after by collectors today.
