Interesting fact

The 10 Centimes coin from La Clayette, France, was issued in 1922 and features an unusual design for a coin of its time. Instead of featuring a portrait of a political leader or a national symbol, the coin bears the image of a handshake between two people, symbolizing the union of commerce and industry. This design was chosen to represent the importance of collaboration and cooperation between different sectors of society, and it remains a unique and interesting feature of this coin.
