Interesting fact

The 2 Reales coin from La Rioja (Argentine provinces) made of Silver weighing 6.7g has an interesting fact that it was minted during the period of the Argentine Confederation, which was a short-lived political entity that existed from 1831 to 1852. This coin was one of the few coins minted during this period, making it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists.
