Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Centimes coin was designed by French artist and engraver, Lucien Bazor. Bazor was known for his work on various French coins and banknotes, and his design for the Pattern 10 Centimes features a stunning depiction of a French Republic allegory on the obverse, and a reversed image of the same allegory on the reverse, creating a unique double revers design. This particular coin is a rare and valuable example of Bazor's work, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
