Interesting fact

The Pattern 10 centimes Daniel-Dupuis coin was designed by French artist and engraver, Daniel Dupuis, and features a unique hybrid design that combines elements of both the obverse and reverse sides of the coin. This distinctive design feature was intended to create a sense of continuity between the two sides of the coin, and was a departure from the traditional practice of having a separate obverse and reverse design.
