Interesting fact
The 10 cent coin from French Indochina, minted between 1921 and 1937, is interesting because it was made of silver, specifically an alloy of 68% silver and 32% copper. This is notable because silver coins were not commonly used in circulation at the time, and it speaks to the economic and political influence of France in the region during that period.
