Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of materials. The coin is made of silver (.999) clad bronze, which means that it has a layer of pure silver on top of a bronze core. This combination of materials gives the coin a distinctive look and makes it stand out from other coins. Additionally, the use of silver and bronze creates a sense of contrast and adds to the coin's visual appeal.
