Interesting fact
The coin , the 10 Cash coin from Danish India minted during the reign of Christian VII (1782-1790), is made of copper. That's interesting because copper was a valuable resource at the time, and it's impressive that the Danish India government chose to use it for their currency. Additionally, the fact that it was used for a standard circulation coin suggests that copper was widely available and accessible in Danish India during that period.
