Interesting fact

The Pattern 2 Francs coin from Belgium, minted in 1930, is a rare and valuable collector's item. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was designed by the renowned Belgian artist and sculptor, Victor Rousseau. Rousseau was known for his work in various artistic fields, including sculpture, painting, and numismatics. His design for the Pattern 2 Francs coin features a beautiful depiction of a Belgian lion on the obverse side, and a stunning rendition of the Belgian coat of arms on the reverse side. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a highly sought-after collectible among numismatists and coin enthusiasts.
