Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of aluminum, which was a relatively new material at the time of its production in 1921. The use of aluminum in coinage was a departure from the traditional metals like gold, silver, and copper, and it reflected the growing importance of industrialization and technological advancements in the early 20th century.
