Comment
Previously KM#95Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 50th anniversary of UNICEF, the United Nations Children's Fund. The coin's design features the UNICEF logo on one side and the Argentine coat of arms on the other. The use of bimetallic material, with an aluminum bronze center and a copper-nickel ring, gives the coin a unique and distinctive look. Additionally, the coin's weight of 6.35 grams makes it a substantial piece, and its 1996 mintage makes it a relatively rare and collectible item.
