Interesting fact

The 5 Para coin from Yugoslavia, which was minted in 1996, has a unique feature. It's a reduced-size coin, meaning it's smaller than the standard coin size for the 5 Para denomination. This was done to reduce the cost of production and to make the coin more convenient to handle and use in everyday transactions. Despite its smaller size, the coin still maintains its value and is considered a collectible item among numismatists.
