Comment
This coin was found in Musi River (Sumatra/Indonesia).Interesting fact
The 1 Pitis coin from the Malay peninsula (Malaysia) made of Tin weighing 1.00g is interesting because it is one of the few coins in the world that is made of tin, a relatively soft and malleable metal. Most coins are made of harder metals like copper, nickel, or zinc to ensure durability and resistance to wear and tear. The use of tin in this coin's production adds a unique touch to its design and composition, making it stand out among other coins in circulation.
