The tumult of Mexico’s war of independence is visible in this crude and copper 8-reales minted in the town of Oaxaca in 1813, and later counterstamped under the authority of the insurgent General Morelos. The bow and arrow on the coin’s reverse—obscured by the effects of the obverse counterstamp—point north, in the direction the revolutionaries intended to march against the Royalists. ![]()
