JAN. 15 1915. incuse lettering.
Interesting fact
The 5 Centavos coin from the State of Oaxaca, Mexico, issued in 1915, has an interesting feature. The letters on the coin are incuse, meaning they are sunken into the surface of the coin rather than being raised. This unique feature makes it stand out from other coins of its time and adds to its collectibility.
