Interesting fact
The 8 Scudos coin from Bolivia, minted between 1831 and 1840, is interesting because it was one of the first coins to feature the iconic Bolivian symbol, the condor, on its reverse side. The condor is a large South American bird known for its impressive wingspan and is considered a symbol of power and freedom in Bolivian culture. The inclusion of the condor on the coin reflects the country's rich history and cultural heritage.
