Interesting fact
The 25 Centimes 1920 coin from Commune of Châlons-sur-Marne was minted during a time of great economic and political change in France. The coin was issued during the Third Republic, which was a period of relative political stability and economic growth following the tumultuous years of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. The use of aluminum in the coin's minting was also a significant innovation at the time, as aluminum was still a relatively new and expensive material in the early 20th century.
