Interesting fact

The Pattern 100 Pesos (Pattern; Morelos; Version 1) 1976 from Mexico, made of Silver weighing 27g, is a rare and unique coin. It was created as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design. This coin features the portrait of Jose Maria Morelos, a Mexican independence leader, on the obverse, and the Mexican coat of arms on the reverse. It's interesting to note that this coin was not officially released by the Mexican Mint, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
