| Additional information |
Amecameca issued its own copper fractional currency during the Reform War period, when the breakdown of central authority pushed individual Mexican states and municipalities to produce emergency coinage to meet local commercial needs. These state-level issues were often struck on improvised equipment, and the Amecameca pieces are no exception — die alignment and planchet quality vary considerably across surviving examples.
