Interesting fact

The 10 Centimes coin from Ham, France, is interesting because it was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice for coins at the time. Aluminum was expensive and difficult to produce, so it was not commonly used for coins. The fact that this coin was made of aluminum suggests that it was a special issue or had a specific purpose. Additionally, the coin's design, which features a portrait of a farmer and a wheat stalk, may have been meant to symbolize the agricultural industry of the Somme region.
