Interesting fact

The coin , the 10 Cash coin from Danish India made of Copper, has an interesting fact associated with it. It was minted during the reign of King Christian VIII of Denmark, who ruled from 1839 to 1848. The coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which were designed to standardize the currency in the Danish colonies. This coin, in particular, was minted in 1842 and was used in the Danish India colony, which is now known as Tamil Nadu, India. It's interesting to note that the coin was made of copper, which was a common material used for coins during that time period.
