Hi silversaver888@silversaver888,
This coin is called "fuerte" (strong in English). When it was issued, it had a similar amount of silver as in the Morgan silver coin. The year 1910 is easy to find. The most difficult to find (and expensive) is the first issue, struck in 1879, and it is not easy to find it in good conditions. For a collector of Venezuela coins having the whole set is a must. ( I think they are 21 different coins).
The numismatic history of Venezuela is fascinating.
