Interesting fact
The Pattern 25 Sentimos coin (Juan Luna; pattern) 1967 from the Philippines, made of silver-plated copper, is a rare and unique coin. It was created as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design. This coin features a portrait of Juan Luna, a Filipino artist and politician, on one side, and an image of the Philippine coat of arms on the other. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was never officially released into circulation, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists. Its rarity and historical significance have driven up its value, and it is now considered a prized addition to any collection of Philippine coins.
