Interesting fact
The 20 Dinara coin from Yugoslavia, minted in 1938 during the reign of King Peter II, has an interesting feature. Despite being made of silver (.750), it weighs only 9 grams, which is relatively light for a coin of its size and metal composition. This is due to the fact that the coin was designed with a unique rim design, which includes a series of small reeding on the edges. This design feature not only adds to the coin's aesthetic appeal but also helps to reduce the weight of the coin, making it easier to handle and transport.
