Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 100 Francs (Independence) 1960 coin from Niger is that it was minted to commemorate the country's independence from France, which was achieved on August 3, 1960. The coin's design features a portrait of a Nigerien woman on the obverse side, and the reverse side depicts the country's coat of arms and the inscription "République du Niger" (Republic of Niger). The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
