Interesting fact
The 1 Décime coin was introduced during Napoleon's reign as a replacement for the French Revolutionary franc, and it was designed to be a more durable and practical coin for everyday use. The bronze composition was chosen for its durability and resistance to wear and tear, making it well-suited for circulation. Despite being made of a less valuable metal than some other coins, the 1 Décime coin was still considered a symbol of French pride and patriotism, featuring an image of Napoleon himself on one side and the French national emblem on the other. Today, these coins are highly sought after by collectors and can be worth a significant amount, depending on their condition and rarity.
