Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Francs - Louis-philippe I (IIè type Domard, Hybride, relief edge) 1831 from France is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in France. The coin was minted in 1831, just a few years after the French Revolution of 1830, which overthrew King Charles X and led to the establishment of the July Monarchy, which was ruled by Louis-Philippe I. This coin is a symbol of the tumultuous period in French history and the transition from a monarchy to a constitutional monarchy.
