Interesting fact

The 4 Soles coin from Bolivia, minted between 1853 and 1855, has an interesting feature. It was made of silver (.667) and weighed 13.5 grams. That's interesting because it was one of the first coins in Bolivia to use silver as its primary metal, and its weight was significant for a coin of its denomination at the time.
