Interesting fact

The 10 Pesos 1939 coin from Paraguay made of Copper-nickel is interesting because it was issued during the presidency of José Félix Estigarribia, who was a prominent military leader and politician in Paraguay's history. Estigarribia served as president from 1939 until his death in 1940, and his administration was marked by efforts to modernize and develop Paraguay's economy and infrastructure. The coin's design, which features an image of Estigarribia on one side and the Paraguayan coat of arms on the other, reflects the country's political and cultural heritage during this time period.
