Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 5 Sentimos (Ferdinand E. Marcos; pattern) 1967 from Philippines made of Lead is that it features a unique design that was never officially adopted as a circulating coin. The pattern coin was minted in 1967, during the presidency of Ferdinand Marcos, and was intended to be a new design for the 5 sentimos coin. However, the design was never approved for circulation and only a small number of pattern coins were minted. As a result, the Pattern 5 Sentimos (Ferdinand E. Marcos; pattern) 1967 from Philippines made of Lead is a rare and highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
