Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Cents George VI coin from Malaya (Malaysia) is that it was minted during World War II, specifically between 1939 and 1941. Due to the war, the coin's silver content was reduced from the standard .900 to .750, which was a common practice during this time period to conserve precious metals for the war effort. Despite this reduction, the coin still maintains a significant silver content, making it a unique and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in coins from this time period.
