The Lost Mint of Córdoba: Coinage, Politics, and Power in 19th-Century Argentina (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798286892136)

This meticulously researched work delves into the tumultuous history of Córdoba's short-lived provincial mint, a bold but ill-fated attempt to establish financial independence during Argentina's turbulent early decades. Through rare archival documents, personal correspondence, and official decrees, the book reconstructs the ambitious vision of Governor Manuel López and the technical expertise of French engineer Juan Roqué, whose European machinery promised to revolutionize coin production in the region.
