Comment
Not released into circulation.Interesting fact
The 50 Paisa 1998 coin from Pakistan is a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not meant to be used as regular currency. Instead, it was produced in limited quantities and sold at a higher price than its face value, primarily to collectors and coin enthusiasts. This makes it a unique and sought-after collector's item for those interested in numismatics.
