Interesting fact
The Pattern 1 Peso (Fall of Bataan; copper pattern) 1967 from Philippines made of Copper is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted in 1967 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Fall of Bataan during World War II, but the design was never approved, and only a few pattern coins were struck. As a result, it is considered a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
