Comment
Catálogo de Monedas y Ensayos de la República del Paraguay. Miguel Angel Pratt Mayans, 2013 (M40) - Broken DieA distinctive die crack extends through most of the reverse behind the lion, but only further demonstrates the conditions under which this obscure series was produced.
Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Reales (Silver Pattern) 1864 from Paraguay made of Silver weighing 24.50 g is a rare and valuable coin, with only 200 pieces minted. It was created as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a sample or prototype for a potential new coin design. As a result, it is highly sought after by collectors and numismatists.
