Interesting fact
The Pattern 4 Reales coin from Córdoba (Argentine provinces) made of Copper weighing 11.3g is a rare and unique coin. It was minted in 1852 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a sample or prototype for a potential new coin design. The fact that it was made of copper is interesting because copper was not commonly used for coinage in Argentina at that time, and it adds to the coin's rarity and historical significance.
