Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 50 Centavos coin from the Philippines, featuring Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos, is that it was never officially released into circulation. Despite being minted in 1966, the coin was not widely distributed or used as legal tender, making it a rare and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
