Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during a time of political turmoil in Mexico. The Provisional Government of Mexico issued this coin in 1916, while the country was in the midst of a civil war. Despite the chaos, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with its gold composition and intricate design.
