Interesting fact
The 10 Centimes 1918 coin from Commune of Annonay was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice of material for coins at that time. Aluminum was not commonly used in coinage until the mid-20th century, so this coin is a rare example of an early use of aluminum in coin production.
