Interesting fact

The 10 Rupees coin from Mauritius, which was issued from 2016 to 2019, has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. It is the first coin in the world to use a new technology called "Shape-Memory Alloy" (SMA) in its production. This technology allows the coin to change its shape slightly when exposed to temperature changes, making it difficult to counterfeit. This innovative feature has made the coin a popular collector's item among numismatists and coin enthusiasts.
