Interesting fact

The 1 Peso 1925 coin from Paraguay made of Copper-nickel is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in the country. Paraguay was facing high inflation and economic instability in the 1920s, and the government responded by introducing a new currency, the peso, to replace the previously used Paraguayan guarani. The 1 Peso coin was one of the first coins minted in the new currency, and it features an image of the Paraguayan national hero, Marshal Francisco Solano López, on one side and the national coat of arms on the other. Despite the economic challenges faced by Paraguay at the time, the 1 Peso coin remained in circulation for many years and is still considered a valuable collector's item today.
