Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it is magnetic, which is a unique feature for a coin. Most coins are made of non-magnetic materials like copper, silver, or gold, but this coin is made of copper-plated steel, which is magnetic. This feature was included to make the coin stand out and to commemorate the occasion of the Khalifa (FAO) in a special way.
