Interesting fact

The Butterfly Brown coin is a non-circulating coin minted by the Monnaie de Paris (Paris Mint) in 2002. It features a unique design that showcases a butterfly on one side and the French Republic's motto, "Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité," on the other. The coin is made of .900 silver and weighs 25 grams. It was minted to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the birth of the French entomologist, Jean-Henri Fabre, who was known for his work on the study of butterflies.
