Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Cents George VI coin from Malaya (Malaysia) is that it was minted during the Japanese occupation of Malaya during World War II. The coin was minted in 1943 and 1944, and it features a unique design that reflects the historical context of its production. The coin's obverse features a portrait of King George VI, while the reverse features a stylized image of a paddy field, which was a symbol of Malaya's agricultural economy at the time. The coin's silver content and relatively low mintage make it a valuable collector's item today.
