Interesting fact

The 1 Cent coin from Seychelles, minted in 1977, was made of aluminum, which is a relatively lightweight metal. This makes it unique compared to other coins of similar value, which are often made of heavier metals like copper or nickel. The use of aluminum in the coin's production also reflects Seychelles' efforts to reduce the cost of coin production and make currency more accessible to its citizens.
