Interesting fact
The 5 Groszy coin from Poland made of Manganese brass has a unique feature - it's non-magnetic. This is because Manganese brass, which is an alloy of copper, zinc, and manganese, is not magnetic. This means that the coin will not be attracted to magnets, which is different from many other coins that are made of magnetic materials.
