Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Escudos 1843 coin from La Rioja (Argentine provinces) is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Argentina. The country was facing high inflation and political instability, which led to the adoption of a new currency, the "Florín" in 1843, of which this coin is an example. Despite the challenges, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with its gold content and intricate design.
