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 17th century, but it's unusual for a coin to weigh as much as 18.46g. Most coins from this time period were made of silver or gold, and copper coins were usually smaller in size and had a lower denomination. The fact that this coin is made of copper and has a relatively high weight suggests that it may have been used for a specific purpose or had a special significance.
