Durango 1860 cuartilla rev JS.jpg

This specimen is a copper quarter real issued 1860 and 1866 by the state of Durango. It was the first cuartilla issued by the state since 1858.

The Mexican constitution reserved the right to coin gold and silver to the federal government but granted the right to mint copper to the states, which right they used and abused. For some states, this was a major source of revenue as the metal content was much less than the face value. For others, it was an opportunity to thumb their noses at the central government by proclaiming their "free and sovereign" status.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: copper, 27 mm diameter.

Catalog reference: KM 348, DB-280[2].
