| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned arms of Castile and León, flanked on either side by the Pillars of Hercules, occupy the central field. The entire design is encircled by a beaded inner border, outside of which runs the full circumferential legend MONEDA PROVISIONAL DE ZACATECAS. The shield and pillars are rendered in the crude but recognizable style typical of Zacatecas provisional coinage of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Zacatecas began striking coins under royalist authority in 1810, just months after Hidalgo's revolt upended New Spain's mint supply chains. The Casa de Moneda there operated as an emergency facility — its early issues are notoriously crude, hand-struck with improvised tools under wartime pressure, and the 1811 output reflects exactly that chaos. These are sometimes called "cobs of the independence wars" informally, though they carry royal authorization.
KM#184 pieces from this year show significant die-to-die variation in centering and depth of strike, a direct consequence of the mint's hasty establishment rather than any systematic deficiency.
