Comment
Gadoury estimates the circulation of the variety without the I to be 5% of the overall circulation of the .Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Francs - Louis-Philippe (without I - relief edge) 1830 coin from France is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in France. The coin was minted in 1830, just a year after the July Revolution, which overthrew King Charles X and led to the establishment of the July Monarchy, which was ruled by Louis-Philippe, the Duke of Orléans. This period of political instability and transition is reflected in the design of the coin, which features a portrait of Louis-Philippe on one side and the French coat of arms on the other. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remained in circulation for many years and is now a sought-after collector's item.
