Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 8 Reales - Charles IV (MVA - Royalist countermark coinage) ND (1809-1822) from Mexico made of Silver is that it was minted during the Mexican War of Independence (1810-1821) and features a countermark, which was a stamp or mark applied to the coin by the Spanish colonial authorities to verify its authenticity and value. This countermark was applied to coins that were minted in Mexico City and circulated in the region, and it is a unique feature that sets this coin apart from other coins of the same era.
