Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted in 1918, during a time of great economic and political turmoil in France, particularly in the Department of Val-de-Marne where Joinville-le-Pont is located. Despite the challenges of that time, the coin's design and production were still able to showcase the beauty and craftsmanship of French coinage.
