Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Centimos coin featuring Mariana Pineda is that it was made of cardboard, which is a unique material for coins. Most coins are made of metals like copper, silver, or gold, but this particular coin was created during a time of economic hardship in Spain, and the use of cardboard was likely a cost-saving measure. Despite its humble material, the coin still holds significant historical and cultural value, and it remains a fascinating piece of numismatic history.
