Interesting fact

The obverse of the coin features a portrait of Marianne, the national personification of France, designed by the French sculptor, Auguste Dupre. The design was originally created in 1878 and has been used on various French coins throughout the years. The use of Marianne as a symbol of France can be traced back to the French Revolution, and she is often depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, which symbolizes liberty and freedom.
