Comment

Apollo 15 was the ninth crewed mission in the United States' Apollo program, the eighth to be successful, and the fourth to land on the Moon. It was the first J mission, with a longer stay on the Moon and a greater focus on science than earlier landings. Apollo 15 saw the first use of the Lunar Roving Vehicle.

Interesting fact

The 1500 Guaraníes coin commemorating the Apollo 15 Mission is a unique and rare coin. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted in 1975, but it was not released for circulation. Instead, it was only available for purchase as a collector's item, making it a sought-after piece for coin collectors and space enthusiasts.
