Interesting fact
The Pattern 1 Franc - Léopold II (Pattern - French text) 1903 from Belgium made of Silver is a rare and valuable coin, with only 200 pieces minted. It was designed by Albert Desenfans, a Belgian artist and engraver, and features a portrait of King Léopold II on one side and the Belgian coat of arms on the other. The coin was never officially released into circulation, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
