Interesting fact

The 10 Centavos coin from the State of Guerrero, Mexico, made of silver and weighing 2.52g, is interesting because it was minted during a time of great change in Mexico. The coin was issued in 1914, just a year before the outbreak of the Mexican Revolution, which lasted from 1910 to 1920 and had a profound impact on the country's political, social, and economic landscape. Despite the turmoil, the coin remained in circulation and was a symbol of the country's resilience and determination to maintain economic stability during a time of great upheaval.
