Quote: Did the new independent states even have their own mints so early, or did they rely on the old mother country I assume Peru and Chile did, because Spanish colonials had been minted in Lima and Santiago. Brazil coins were minted in Lisbon before 1807 and in Brazil thereafter. Early post-independence Argentina used the Potosi mint and there were a lot of [provincial issues (let's hope we don;t have to go there).

Let's see what answer we get to before 1800.
If yes, that will eliminate Argentina and Ecuador as best I can tell? If denominated in reals, that puts us in Chile or Peru.
