Interesting fact
The Pattern 100 Pesos coin from Mexico, made of Aluminium bronze in 1989, features a unique design that was never officially adopted as a circulating coin. It showcases a portrait of Venustiano Carranza, the leader of the Mexican Revolution, on one side, and an eagle perched on a cactus plant on the other. This design was only used for a small number of pattern coins, making it a rare and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
