Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was made of zinc, which is a relatively soft and corrosion-prone metal, but was also nickel-plated to improve its durability and resistance to wear and tear. This combination of materials was a common practice in the production of coins during that time period, as it allowed for the creation of coins that were both affordable and durable.
