Interesting fact
The 1500 Guaraníes coin commemorating the Apollo 11 Mission, issued by Paraguay in 1975, is made of gold (0.900) and weighs 10.70 grams. One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an error in the design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of the Apollo 11 spacecraft, but the image is actually a mirrored version of the spacecraft, with the words "Apollo 11" written in reverse. This error was likely caused by a mistake in the minting process and has become a unique characteristic of the coin, making it stand out among other coins in the series.
