Interesting fact
The Pattern 100 Pesos (Pattern; Morelos; Reeded Edge) 1979 from Mexico, made of Silver (.720), is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was part of a series of pattern coins minted in 1979 to test new designs and metallic compositions, but ultimately, it was not adopted as the standard design for the 100 pesos coin. As a result, only a limited number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
