Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Francs - Louis-Philippe I coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in France. The coin was minted in 1830, just a few years after the French Revolution of 1815, which saw the fall of Napoleon and the restoration of the monarchy. The coin features Louis-Philippe I, who was the King of the French from 1830 until his abdication in 1848. This period saw significant political and social upheaval, including the rise of the July Monarchy and the June Days Uprising. Despite this turmoil, the coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item, with its silver content and historical significance making it a prized addition to any collection.
