Interesting fact

The 5 Centavos coin from the State of Guerrero, Mexico, is interesting because it was made of copper, a metal that was widely used in coinage during that time period. However, it's worth noting that the use of copper in coinage has largely been discontinued in modern times due to its low value and the risk of copper toxicity.
