Interesting fact
The 1847 Colombian 1 Real coin features a unique design element - a small image of a condor, which is a symbol of Colombian national pride and freedom. The condor is depicted on the coin's obverse, surrounded by the words "Republica de Colombia" and the date "1847". This design was created by the Colombian artist, José Domingo Falla, and it has become a distinctive feature of Colombian coinage.
