Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in France. The coin was issued from 1917 to 1924, a period that saw the end of World War I, the Russian Revolution, and the rise of fascist movements across Europe. Despite these tumultuous times, the coin remains a symbol of the enduring spirit of the Commune of Perpignan and the Chamber of Commerce that issued it.
