Interesting fact

The 1 Jiao coin from the People's Republic of China, which was in circulation from 1991 to 1999, has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. The coin's outer rim is notched, with 100 small notches around the edge. This notched design was intended to help blind people identify the coin more easily.
