Interesting fact
The 1936 Edward VIII copper-nickel 10 cents coin from East Africa is a rare and valuable coin, with only 200,000 minted. It was issued during the brief reign of King Edward VIII, who abdicated later that year to marry an American divorcee, Wallis Simpson. As a result, the coin was minted in limited quantities and is now highly sought after by collectors.
