Interesting fact

The 1 Kasu coin from the Kingdom of Madurai (Indian Hindu Dynasties) made of Copper weighing 3.14 g is interesting because it was used as a form of currency during the 15th century in the region that is now modern-day India. It's fascinating to think about the everyday transactions and purchases that were made with this coin, and the impact it had on the local economy. Additionally, the fact that it's made of copper, a material that was widely used in ancient India for coinage, adds to its historical significance.
