Interesting fact
The 50 Euro Cents coin from Latvia, made of Nordic gold, has a unique feature - it changes color over time. The coin's alloy is designed to oxidize, resulting in a gradual change in its color from a shiny gold to a subtle bronze tone. This natural process adds an element of surprise and beauty to the coin, making it a fascinating collector's item.
