Interesting fact

The 1 Córdoba coin from Nicaragua, produced between 1997 and 2000, has an interesting feature. Despite being made of nickel-plated steel, it has a unique design that sets it apart from other coins. The obverse side of the coin features the national emblem of Nicaragua, which includes a triangle with volcanoes, a rising sun, and a banner with the country's motto. The reverse side features a portrait of Augusto César Sandino, a Nicaraguan revolutionary leader, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was chosen to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Sandino's death. This coin is not only a symbol of Nicaragua's rich history but also a tribute to one of its most influential leaders.
