Comment
Menzel: BBBInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it is made of iron, which is a unusual material for coins, especially in modern times. Most coins are made of a combination of metals, such as copper, nickel, and zinc, or even a single metal like gold or silver. The use of iron in this coin gives it a distinctive weight and feel, and it's a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins.
