Additional information

Córdoba's provincial coinage of 1841 sits in the middle of Argentina's most chaotic monetary period — the decades following independence when Buenos Aires monopolized the national mint and the interior provinces were left to improvise. Córdoba had no permanent mint of its own, and these silver reales were struck under contract arrangements that varied enough to produce the die differences catalogued across the three CJ varieties.

The provincial government's authority to issue coin was perpetually contested by Buenos Aires federalists and unitarians alike, for entirely different reasons.
