Interesting fact

The Pattern 1 Peso coin from Mexico, featuring the Morelos, Modern Eagle design, is made of silver, and it's interesting to note that this coin was never officially released into circulation. Instead, it was only produced as a pattern coin, which means it was created as a prototype or sample coin to test the design and production process. This makes it a rare and unique piece among collectors.
