Interesting fact
The 200 Soles de Oro (Aviation Heroes) coin from Peru, minted between 1974 and 1978, features a unique design that honors Peruvian aviation heroes. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted using a unique process called "splash minting," which creates a textured, irregular surface that resembles the roughness of the human fingerprint. This process was used to give the coin a distinctive look and feel, and to emphasize the importance of the aviation heroes being honored.
