Pakistan Coin
Origin: Pakistan
Unit: 1 Paisa
Haven't posted anything in awhile, so I randomly grabbed a coin from the large box of cataloged ones. So I present you with this Pakistan 1 paisa coin. The currency of Pakistan is based on the rupee where 100 paisas equals 1 rupee. In 1961 the country switched over their rupees to make them decimalized, i.e. a system where 1 paisa is .01 of a rupee rather than a system. This is a 1971 version, made of aluminum, and they minted this particular type for six years from 1967 to 1973.
