Interesting fact

The 1 Cash coin from Danish India, issued during the reign of Christian V (1670-1699), was made of lead, which was a common material for coins at that time. However, lead is a soft and malleable metal, which made it prone to wear and tear. As a result, many of these coins have survived in poor condition, with visible signs of wear and damage. Despite this, they remain a popular collector's item among numismatists due to their historical significance and rarity.
