Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2016 French 100 Euro Le Teston gold coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the famous French motif of the "Sower" (La Semeuse) on one side, while the other side bears the portrait of Marianne, the national personification of France. This coin is a non-circulating legal tender, meaning it is not meant to be used as regular currency, but rather as a collector's item or an investment vehicle. Additionally, the coin's gold content of 92% (22-karat) and its weight of 17 grams make it a valuable and sought-after collectible among numismatists and gold investors.
