Interesting fact

The 25 Centimes 1918 coin from Commune of Saint-Germain-en-Laye (Department of Yvelines) is interesting because it was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice for coins at that time. Aluminum was not widely used in coinage until the mid-20th century, so this coin is a rare example of an early use of the metal in coin production.
