Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Centavos coin from Argentina made of Copper-nickel (Cu 75 Ni 25) is that it was designed by the renowned Argentine artist, Eduardo Schiaffino. Schiaffino was a prominent painter and sculptor who was known for his work in various artistic styles, including Realism, Impressionism, and Art Nouveau. His design for the 10 Centavos coin features a portrait of José de San Martín, an Argentine general and national hero who played a key role in the country's independence movement. The coin's design was produced in 1896 and was used until 1942, making it a popular and enduring symbol of Argentine history and culture.
