Interesting fact

The 100 Yen coin from Japan made of Copper-nickel (75% Copper, 25% Nickel) weighing 4.8 g has a unique feature that makes it stand out from other coins. It has a "double-ring" design on the obverse side, which means that the inner circle is slightly raised and has a different texture than the outer circle. This design was implemented to help visually impaired people distinguish the coin more easily.
