Interesting fact

The ¼ Larin coin from Maldives, issued in 1883 during the reign of Sultan Ibrahim Nooraddeen, features a unique design element - a crescent moon and a five-pointed star, which are symbols of Islam, the official religion of Maldives. This design was used on many coins of the time and has become a distinctive feature of Maldivian currency.
