Interesting fact

The 10 Centavos coin from the Philippines, minted between 1907 and 1935, is interesting because it was made of a unique alloy of 75% silver and 25% copper, which was different from the standard copper-nickel alloy used in many other coins of the time. This makes it stand out among other coins of its era and adds to its collectibility.
