Interesting fact
The 2005 French Biathlon 10 Euro gold coin features a unique design that combines two different sports: cross-country skiing and target shooting. The coin's obverse (front side) depicts a biathlete in the midst of a shooting session, while the reverse (back side) shows a stylized representation of a cross-country skiing trail. This design was created by French artist Joaquin Jimenez, and it's a nod to the biathlon sport, which combines both skiing and marksmanship.
