Comment

Silver coins of the Dominican Republic were not officially demonetized, but they disappeared from circulation already in the 1970s because of inflation.

Interesting fact

The 10 Centavos coin from the Dominican Republic, issued in 1963 to commemorate the Restoration of the Republic, features an image of the country's national hero, Juan Pablo Duarte, on its obverse side. Duarte was a key figure in the country's struggle for independence from Haiti and is considered one of the founding fathers of the Dominican Republic.
