Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of cardboard, which is a unique and unusual material for coins. Most coins are made of metals like copper, nickel, or silver, but during times of war or economic hardship, other materials like cardboard, wood, or even playing cards have been used to create coins. This coin's use of cardboard is a testament to the resourcefulness and adaptability of the people who created it.
