Interesting fact

The 1841 Córdoba 1 Real coin features the provincial coat of arms of Córdoba on one side and the national coat of arms on the other. The coin was made of silver and weighs 3.5 grams. It is an interesting piece of history, as it was minted during a time of political and economic change in Argentina, as the country was transitioning from a colonial society to a independent nation. Additionally, the coin's design reflects the importance of the province of Córdoba in the country's history and its rich cultural heritage.
