Interesting fact

The coin features an armadillo on the obverse (front side), which is not a common motif in numismatics. The armadillo is depicted in a standing position, with its shell and claws prominently displayed. This design choice was likely made to highlight the country's rich wildlife and natural heritage. Additionally, the coin's silver composition (92.5%) and weight (35 grams) make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists and coin enthusiasts.
