Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Cent coin from Straits Settlements (British Malaysia) made of Bronze and weighing 9.33g is that it features a unique blend of Eastern and Western design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of King Edward VII, while the reverse side features a traditional Malay kris, or dagger, surrounded by foliage and other symbols that reflect the cultural influences of the region. This blending of styles reflects the rich cultural heritage of the Straits Settlements, which was a British colony in Southeast Asia that was established in the 19th century.
