Interesting fact

The 1915 Oaxaca 1 Peso coin is a rare and unique piece, as it was minted during a time of political and social upheaval in Mexico. The Provisional Government of Mexico issued this coin as a temporary solution to address the lack of currency in circulation, as the country was facing a severe economic crisis. The coin's design features the national emblem of Mexico, an eagle devouring a snake, and the inscription "Estado Libre y Soberano de Oaxaca" (Free and Sovereign State of Oaxaca). The fact that it is made of silver and weighs 7.27 grams adds to its value and historical significance, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
