🧿🪬KATE🤙🇨🇦 :

they used to be precious metals and the ridges were there originally for coin clipping...but to keep the illusion of value in worthless metal they continued with the look of the old coins.

Well son coins NOWADAYS have ridges because back in the day when they didn’t people would cut off the edges and use that is to make more coins, so the government decided to put ridges on it to make it harder to do that and so they can use it as identifier that it’s a legal coin

I’ve always wondered that too, does anyone actually know why tho?
