Interesting fact
The 1 Văn - Thiên Minh ND coin from Đàng Trong (Empire of Vietnam) made of Zinc weighing 2.00 g has a unique feature - it has a square hole in the center, which is unlike most coins that have a round hole. This square hole was designed to make it easier for people to tell the coin apart from other coins, and to prevent counterfeiting.
