Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1914 El Salvador 25 Centavos coin is that it was minted during a time of political and economic turmoil in the country. El Salvador had recently gained independence from Spain in 1821, but it was struggling to establish a stable government and economy. The coin was minted in an effort to address the country's economic challenges and promote trade, but it ultimately had limited success due to the ongoing political instability and economic struggles. Despite this, the coin remains a unique and interesting piece of history for collectors and historians today.
