"3 gramos" to waga monety, a nie jej nominał!

W latach 1937-1947 nie było banknotów nominowanych w dominikańskich pesos. Dolary amerykańskie były w obiegu (od 1905 roku), a lokalne monety były w obiegu na równi z monetami amerykańskimi, tak jak w Panamie i Ekwadorze w naszych czasach. Monety miały wagę, średnicę i skład identyczny z monetami amerykańskimi z tamtego okresu. Automatically translated

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

"3 gramos" is the weight of the coin; not its denomination!

In 1937-1947 there were no banknotes nominated in Dominican pesos. US dollars were in circulation (since 1905), and local coins were circulating at par with US coins like in Panama and Ecuador in our days. The coins had weights, diameters, and composition identical to those of US coins of that period.
