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 innovative feature has made the coin a popular collector's item among numismatists and coin enthusiasts.
