Other metals such as copper, nickel and zinc are used to make ordinary coins. Initially, pennies were made from copper. But during wartime years the penny was even made from steel mixed with zinc so as to conserve copper for making weapons and shell casings.
Government of India has been using various metals from time to time depending on the value of metals. Currently, using Ferritic Stainless Steel (17% Chromium and 83% Iron) is being used for manufacturing most of the coins.
