Interesting fact
The 25 Centimes coin from the Département de la Haute Garonne, issued in 1922, was made of aluminum, which was a unusual choice for coins at that time. Aluminum was still a relatively new material in the early 20th century, and it was not commonly used for coins until later in the century. This makes the coin a unique and interesting piece of numismatic history.
