Comment

Honorific issue offered by the manufacturer to the issuer’s representatives (elected officials, notables...). Some mintage may exceed one hundred (Elie 2003 p. 9).

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in France, specifically during the hyperinflation of the 1920s. The coin's value of 25 centimes was a relatively small denomination, but it was still an important part of the currency system at the time. Despite the economic challenges, the coin's design, featuring the Chambres de Commerce (Chamber of Commerce) of Hérault, highlights the importance of trade and commerce during this period.
