Interesting fact
The 1 Rupee coin from Maldives, minted during the reign of Muhammad Imadduin III in 1750, was made of silver and weighed 13.97 grams. This coin was part of a series of coins issued by the Maldivian government during that time, which featured the name of the ruler and the date of issue in Arabic script. The use of silver in the coin's composition was significant, as it reflected the importance of this precious metal in the Maldivian economy at the time. Additionally, the fact that the coin was minted during a time when the Maldives was still a sultanate, adds to its historical significance.
