Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1811 Ferdinand VII (Royalist Coinage) silver real coin from the State of Zacatecas is that it was minted during a time of political turmoil in Mexico. The coin was issued by the Spanish colonial government, which was struggling to maintain control over the territory in the face of growing independence movements. Despite this, the coin still bears the image of Ferdinand VII, the Spanish king at the time, highlighting the ongoing influence of Spanish rule in Mexico.
