Here is the story: I was scrambling my pocket for loose change to pay my RM6.10 bill (mihun goreng seafood + milo kosong) when I stumbled upon this 10 cent Malaysian parliment coin. Considering it was a parliament I decided not to give it to the waiter, a friend of mine volunteer to help me using a bunga raya coin (that what a friend is for). Only after paying it that I realized that the 10 cent parliament I was holding is from 1971. I immediately burst into laughter since it is very hard to find it in any condition and what more I am that close from using it. The coin is in good condition without any dent or deep scratch but it is in dark color due to stains. I am not so sure if cleaning the coin is a good idea. Anyone can help? Well, this find surely makes my day. I am smiling from work to home. :) Cheers
