Interesting fact
The 4 Soles coin from Argentina, issued in 1815, features a unique design element - a small image of a sun on the reverse side, which represents the Inti, the sun god of the indigenous people of South America. This symbol was included to show the influence of the native cultures on the country's history and heritage.
