Catálogo de Monedas y Ensayos de la República del Paraguay. Miguel Angel Pratt Mayans, 2013 (M23)Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Pesos Fuertes (Silver Pattern) 1873 from Paraguay made of Silver is a rare and unique coin, with only 200 pieces minted. It was designed by the Paraguayan government to promote the country's economy and was intended to be used as a standard currency, but it never entered circulation. The coin features the national emblem of Paraguay on one side and the denomination on the other. Its rarity and historical significance make it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
