Interesting fact

The Pattern 100 Francs coin was designed by French artist and engraver, Albert Decaris, and features a portrait of a young woman representing the spirit of France. The coin was minted in 1950 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. The coin's design was ultimately not adopted for use in circulation, making it a rare and unique piece for collectors.
