Interesting fact

The Pattern 50 Centavos coin from Mexico, made of Nickel in 1945, features a unique design that was never adopted as the official currency of Mexico. Instead, it was used as a pattern coin, which was a trial design that was not released into circulation. This coin is now highly sought after by collectors, making it a valuable and interesting piece of numismatic history.
