Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time when the Straits Settlements, which included Singapore, Malacca, and Penang, were still under British colonial rule. The coin features an image of King Edward VII on one side and the value of 10 cents on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a common practice during this time period, and the weight of 2.71 grams was a standard weight for coins of this denomination. Today, this coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item, with some mint conditions selling for thousands of dollars.
