Interesting fact
The 1 Liard coin was a widely used denomination during the reign of Louis XV, and it was minted in large quantities to meet the needs of everyday transactions. However, due to the coin's small size and low value, it was often used as a token or a substitute for other coins of higher value. In fact, the 1 Liard coin was so widely used that it became a standard unit of exchange in many parts of France, and it remained in circulation well into the 19th century.
