Interesting fact
The 5 Cents coin from Straits Settlements (British Malaysia) made of Copper-nickel and weighing 4.0g is interesting because it was minted during a time when the Straits Settlements were still a British colony, and it features a portrait of King George V, who reigned from 1910 to 1936. This coin was likely used in everyday transactions in what is now Malaysia and Singapore, and it is a piece of history that connects us to the past.
