Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of copper, which was a common material used for coins in the 18th century, but it's also a bit unusual for a coin of this denomination, the 1 Fals, which was usually made of silver or gold. This suggests that the coin may have been intended for circulation among the lower classes or in rural areas where copper coins were more commonly used.
