Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique gold-plating technique, known as "gold-plating with a pad", which creates a thin layer of gold on the surface of the silver coin. This process not only adds a luxurious appearance to the coin but also makes it more durable and resistant to wear and tear.
