Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Quartos - Ferdinand VII (3 QUAR) 1823 coin from Principality of Catalonia (Spanish States) is that it was minted during a time of political turmoil in Spain. The coin was issued during the reign of Ferdinand VII, who was the king of Spain from 1808 until his death in 1833. During his reign, Spain experienced a period of political instability and economic hardship, which led to the minting of coins with lower denominations, such as the 3 Quartos, to address the need for small change in circulation. Despite the challenges of the time, the 3 Quartos - Ferdinand VII (3 QUAR) 1823 coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
