Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Jérôme Bonaparte, the youngest brother of Napoleon Bonaparte, who ruled the Kingdom of Westphalia from 1807 to 1813. Despite being a member of the Bonaparte family, Jérôme's rule was marked by controversy and conflict, and this coin may have been minted as a way to promote his image and legitimacy among the people of Westphalia.
