Comment

Interesting fact

The Victor Hugo 1½ Euro coin was minted in 2002 as part of a series honoring famous French authors. The coin features a portrait of Victor Hugo, a renowned French writer and poet, on one side, and the logo of the European Union on the other. What makes this coin particularly interesting is that it was minted using a special process called "proof minting," which involves striking the coin multiple times to create a highly detailed and polished finish. This process gives the coin a unique and distinctive appearance that sets it apart from other coins.
