Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Francs - Albert I (Pattern) ND (1933) from Belgium made of Silver is a rare and unique coin, with only 500 pieces minted. It was designed by Belgian artist and engraver, Charles de Heuck, and features a portrait of King Albert I on the obverse side, while the reverse side depicts the Belgian coat of arms. The coin was never officially released into circulation, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
