Interesting fact
The 2 Sols coin from France, minted in 1793, was part of a series of coins that were introduced during the French Revolution to replace the old currency system. The coin features a portrait of Liberty on the obverse side and a wreath of laurel leaves on the reverse side. The use of bronze as the material for the coin was a deliberate choice to symbolize the values of the Revolution, which emphasized simplicity, equality, and fraternity. The coin's design was meant to convey the idea that the new currency was accessible to all citizens, regardless of their social status or wealth.
