Following the hype on the appearance of local fruit rambutan in Netflix’s “Another Life”, now comes a new cameo making its way on the popular streaming platform.
Netflix’s original espionage series “The Spy” recently featured an episode where the main character Eli Cohen (Sacha Baron Cohen) was seen buying a Syrian newspaper. In this case, among the coins he used included a Malaysian 10 cents during the purchase.
The scene was pointed out by a Facebook user named Errol Fung. The post has since received notable buzz among the people online.
Some expressed their confusion towards the usage of the coin since the series is set in the year 1960. Keep in mind that our country wasn’t even formed until 3 years later – 16th September 1963.
Additionally, netizens pointed out that it’s not relevant to showcase Malaysian coins in the series due to the fact that the characters are in Syria and not in our country – demanding explanations from Netflix itself.
