Interesting fact

The Pattern 20 Centavos (Silver Pattern) 1868 from Bolivia made of Silver is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted in 1868 as a pattern coin, meaning it was created as a prototype or sample for a potential new coin design, but it was ultimately never adopted or produced in large quantities. As a result, only a small number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors.
