Interesting fact

The 10 Céntimos coin from Aigüestoses del Llobregat (Province of Barcelona) made of Cardboard is a rare and unique coin, as it was created as a substitute for traditional metal coins during a time of economic hardship and metal shortages in Spain. The use of cardboard as a material for coins was a temporary measure, and these coins were only issued in 1937. This makes them a fascinating piece of numismatic history and a valuable collector's item.
