Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Centesimi (Trial) 1950 from Italian Somaliland (Somalia) made of Brass is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted in 1950 as a trial coinage, and only a small number of coins were produced. As a result, it is highly sought after by collectors and is considered a valuable addition to any collection of rare coins.
