Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Cent - Victoria 1862 coin from Straits Settlements (British Malaysia) is that it was made of copper, which was a common material used for coinage during that time period. However, it's worth noting that the use of copper in coinage has largely been discontinued in modern times due to its relatively low value and the risk of copper toxicity. Today, coins are typically made from more durable and less toxic materials like nickel, zinc, or steel.
