Comment
Size varies. Weight varies 12.81-14.8g.Interesting fact
The 50 Centavos coin from the State of Sinaloa, made of Silver and weighing 14.5g, is interesting because it was produced during a time of great change in Mexico's monetary system. The coin was minted between 1905 and 1918, a period when Mexico was transitioning from a silver-based currency to a gold-based currency. This coin represents a unique moment in Mexican history, as it was one of the last silver coins produced before the country adopted a new monetary system.
