Interesting fact
The 10 Centavos coin from Mexico, produced between 1925 and 1935, has an interesting feature. Despite being made of silver (.720), it was designed with a unique shape, known as a "round-square" or "square-round" shape, which sets it apart from other coins. This distinctive shape was created by the Mexican mint to make the coin easily recognizable and harder to counterfeit.
