Interesting fact
The Pattern 1 Franc coin from Belgium, minted in 1929, is a unique and rare coin that features a design that was never officially adopted as a circulating coin. It was created as a pattern coin, which means it was produced as a prototype or sample coin to test the design and production process, but it was never put into circulation. This coin is made of gold (.900) and weighs 8.06 grams, making it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists.
