Interesting fact

The 1 Franc 1920 coin from Commune of Maisons-Lafitte (Department of Yvelines) made of Aluminium weighing 1.4 g is interesting because it was issued during a time when aluminum coins were not commonly used in circulation, and it is a rare example of a coin made of this material from that era.
