The Spanish mints feature large issues of a variety of copper coins which did not circulate at all in the Spanish American colonies. In the predecimal system which obtained until 1847, 34 maravedis = one real of silver. This four maravedis was worth 1/68 of a dollar; history does not record the reason for the odd division. This type was struck in Segovia 1772-88 and in Madrid 1770-71 and was accompanied by copper one, two and eight maravedis. The type is not rare but scarce in nice condition.
Recorded mintage: unknown but a slightly better date.
