Interesting fact
The Eiffel Tower, which is featured on the coin, was originally intended to be a temporary structure. It was built for the 1889 World's Fair in Paris, and was meant to be dismantled after the event. However, it became an instant icon of the city and was left standing. Today, it is one of the most recognizable landmarks in the world and a symbol of French culture and engineering ingenuity.
