Interesting fact

The 50 Fils coin from Kuwait has a unique feature - it's magnetic. This is because the coin is made of stainless steel, which is a ferromagnetic material that can be magnetized. This means that the coin can be attracted to magnets, and it's also possible to magnetize the coin itself by placing it near a strong magnet. This feature makes the coin stand out from other coins that are made of non-magnetic materials.
