After a period of striking reales, pesos and escudos which must be regarded as a failure, [[Ecuador]] ceased minting coins in 1862. In 1884, the government tried again, this time with coinage produced on contract by the Heaton mint in Birmingham, England. A new currency conforming to the Latin Monetary Union was introduced, the sucre, with its division the centavo. By 1928 successive devaluations had reduced the sucre from 25 grams of silver to five. This one centavo was minted in 1928 only. The type is much less common than the low catalog value would indicate. The 1928 issue included one, [[Ecuador 1928 2-1/2 centavos|2½]], five, [[Ecuador 1928 10 centavos|ten]] and [[Ecuador 1928 50 centavos|fifty centavos]] and [[Ecuador 1928 sucre|one]] and [[Ecuador 1928 2 sucres|two sucres]].<br />
