Interesting fact
The coin , the 1 Cash - Frederik III 1650 from Danish India, is interesting because it was made of lead, which is a relatively soft and inexpensive metal. This choice of material was likely chosen to keep the cost of production low, but it also makes the coin less durable and less resistant to wear and tear compared to coins made of other metals. Despite this, the coin still has a rich history and is a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of Danish India.
