Write scientific reason.
Coins are made from metals and alloys.

उत्तर
- Coins are made from metals and alloys because metals and their alloys possess the property of malleability. So, they can be hammered into flat shape without breaking.
- Metals and alloys used for making coins should be corrosion resistance and bright in colour. They should also be hard and wear resistance.
