Interesting fact

The 10 Centimes coin from Toulouse, France, was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice for coins at the time. Aluminum was still a relatively new material in the early 20th century, and it was not commonly used for coins until later in the century. The use of aluminum for this coin may have been a cost-saving measure or an experiment to test the durability of the material for coinage. Regardless of the reason, it makes the coin stand out as a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
