<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Eduard, post: 24566244, member: 8959&quot;]That is an interesting, historical coin and a nice rpurchase at $50.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As you mention, the troops of the central government succeeded in taking over the town of Potosi in 1813 only to have it recaptured by the loyalists soon after. The Argentinian forces then reclaimed it in 1815 resulting in the minting of 1/2, 1, 2, 4 and 8 real coinage as well as coinage denominated in soles. </p><p><br /></p><p>Your 2 Real is quite a scarce coin. I actually find the Rio de La Plata small denominations, 1/2, 1 2 and 4 reales to be scarcer than the 8 Reales.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
