After a period of striking reales, pesos and escudos which must be regarded as failure, Ecuador ceased minting coins in 1862. In 1872, 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. This issue, along with a two centavos (KM 46), is the only coinage from 1872; both denominations are fairly scarce.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: copper.
Catalog reference: KM 45.
