Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Real - Charles III 1773-1786 coin from Bolivia is that it was minted during the reign of Charles III, who was the last Spanish king to rule over the Spanish colonies in America. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which aimed to standardize the currency across the Spanish colonies.
