You have great history down there. My dream is to find a coin from the same time period. From the earliest settlers that came here. Great finds!

A fantastic bunch of coins - well done !

Jorgeke,
You always find interesting coins.
Of interest here is that all the 1/4 R Chihuahua coins dated 1856 were illegally struck (one year only) in Pennsylvania but circulated in Mexico. The two coins from 1856 were from the (Mexican) series (1854-1856). You might find a rarer variety of the same design minted in 1855 having a diameter of 24mm versus 26mm as in the above referenced coins.
Keep swinging.

Nice selection of coins
What's printed on them-can't make out all the letters?
Time to get some more!

ESTADO LIBRE DE CHIHUAHUA on the 56's
ESTADO DE CHIHUAHUA on the others.
If found, the coin with a dia. of 24mm would show DEPARTMENTO DE CHIHUAHUA

There are several places. Some have rules, like you must be member. The most common are: PCGS, NCG, CACG, and ANACS. Many coin shops are members and can send the coin in for grading. Once the coin is graded, you are assured it’s authentic. A graded coin is easier to sell. There are so many fake coins!

The people that certify coins are experts. I trust their expertise. If a grading company makes mistakes, their business will suffer greatly. They are not the seller or buyer. Only a third party. I trust their judgment.

Jorgeke,
IMO the cost to get these 1/4R coins certified would exceed their value.
These coins were produced locally by the state of Chihuahua to alleviate shortages of small change, acting as a form of "necessity money." The coins, showing a standing Indian holding a bow and arrow, were produced in 1846 and 1854-56.
The coins dated 1846 were illegally struck in Pensylvania, but (obviously) circulated in Mexico.
Coins issued in 1855 having the legend to include the word 'DEPARTMENTO' have a high value than those with the word 'ESTADO".
