Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique numeral design on the reverse side, with the number "IIII" (four "I"s) instead of the traditional "IV" (Roman numeral for 4) used in other coins of the same denomination. This unusual design was used during the reign of Charles IV of Spain, who ruled from 1788 to 1808, and was a distinctive feature of Peruvian coins minted during that period.
