Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Falus coin from the City of Marw is that it was made of copper, which was a common material used for coinage in Central Asia during the 17th to 19th centuries. Copper was abundant in the region and was often used to create coins that were both durable and affordable for everyday transactions. Despite its widespread use, copper coins like the 1 Falus were still subject to wear and tear, and many have survived to this day in varying states of preservation.
