Comment
Interesting fact
The 50 Centavos coin from Mexico, produced between 1918 and 1919, has an interesting feature. Despite being made of silver (.800), it was designed with a unique rim that appears to be made of a different metal, almost resembling a rim of a different color. This distinctive feature makes it stand out from other coins of its time and adds to its collectibility.
