http://worldcoinnews.blogspot.fr/search/label/falkland%20islandsInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it is magnetic, which is a unique feature for a coin. Most coins are made of non-magnetic materials like copper, silver, or gold, but this 10 pence coin from the Falkland Islands is made of nickel-plated steel, which is magnetic. This feature was included as an anti-counterfeiting measure, as it is difficult to create a convincing magnetic fake of the coin.
