Interesting fact
The 1 Jiao coin from the People's Republic of China, which was in circulation from 1999 to 2003, has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. The coin's outer ring is made of a manganese-bronze alloy, while the inner core is made of aluminum. This bi-metallic design was implemented to reduce the cost of production, as aluminum is less expensive than other metals. This coin is one of the few examples of a bi-metallic coin that has been widely circulated.
