Interesting fact

The Pattern Trial Strike (1 Peso) ND from Chile made of Bronze weighing 1.75g is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted as a trial strike, meaning it was created as a test run to evaluate the quality of the metal and the minting process, and only a limited number of coins were produced. As a result, it is highly sought after by collectors and can fetch a high price at auction.
