| Additional information |
Aguascalientes issued its own copper coinage in 1915 under the authority of the Constitutionalist forces during the Mexican Revolution — a period when the collapse of the federal monetary system forced individual states, military factions, and even private businesses to produce emergency currency. Dozens of local issuers flooded circulation with coins and cardboard notes of wildly inconsistent quality and dubious backing.
KM#601 is among the smaller denominations from this state series, struck when copper was effectively the only metal available for low-value coinage. Many of these revolutionary-era state issues were repudiated within months of issue.
