Interesting fact
The 1 Sen coin from Malaysia, issued between 1973 and 1988, has a unique feature - it is magnetic. This is due to the coin's composition of copper-clad steel, which contains a small amount of magnetic material. This feature was added to help distinguish the coin from other denominations and to make it easier for people to identify and handle.
