Host coin KM#186

Multiple countermark coins are the product of coins moving through areas controlled by two or more friend or foe armies, and getting stamped to be usable in their areas.

Catalogs show this coin's number, but no image is available, nor information about which countermarks it contains, so the sheet is opened in order to provide a space for an eventual update regarding the marks in this coin.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1810-1811 Mexican 2 Reales coin is that it was issued during the Mexican War of Independence against Spain, and the multiple countermarks on the coin were used to validate its authenticity and value.
