Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 100 Francs - Louis Philippe (Pattern) 1831 from France made of Bronze weighing 22.08g is that it was designed by the French engraver and medalist, Jean-Pierre Montagny. Montagny was a prominent artist of the time and his work can be found in various museums and collections around the world. This coin, in particular, features a portrait of Louis Philippe on one side and an allegorical scene representing France on the other. The coin was minted in 1831, during the reign of Louis Philippe, who was the King of the French from 1830 to 1848.
