Interesting fact
The Pattern 500 Pesos coin from Mexico, made of steel in 1989, features a unique design that stands out from other coins in the series. The obverse side of the coin showcases a portrait of Francisco I. Madero, a prominent figure in Mexico's history, while the reverse side features the national coat of arms. This coin is particularly interesting because it was never officially released into circulation, making it a rare and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
