Interesting fact
The 50 Paise coin from India, which was in circulation from 1988 to 2007, has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. It has a hole in the center, which was designed to facilitate the use of a thread or cord to tie multiple coins together, making it easier for people to carry them. This feature was introduced to address the issue of coin shortages and to make it easier for people to handle small denomination coins.
