Interesting fact

The 5 Centavos 1935 coin from Bolivia made of Copper-nickel is interesting because it was minted during the presidency of Jose Luis Tejada Sorzano, who was a prominent Bolivian politician and military leader. He served as president of Bolivia from 1934 to 1936, and his administration was marked by efforts to modernize the country's economy and infrastructure. The coin's design, which features the Bolivian coat of arms and the denomination, is a reflection of the country's rich history and cultural heritage.
