Interesting fact
The 1 Pitis coin from the Sultanate of Jambi (Indonesian States) made of Tin weighing 1.39 g is interesting because it is one of the few coins in the world that was made of Tin, a relatively soft and malleable metal, instead of the more commonly used metals like copper, silver, or gold.
