Comment
Without the word "ESSAI". Edge stamped "corne d'abondance" and "BRONZE". Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 centimes Daniel-Dupuis coin was designed by French engraver and sculptor, Daniel-Dupuis, and features a unique design that showcases a stylized allegory of the Republic, with a rooster standing on a shield and surrounded by olive branches. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the values of the French Republic, such as liberty, equality, and fraternity.
