Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Pattern 5 Francs (pattern by Galle, effigie plus grosse au module de la,) 11 (1802) from France made of Tin weighing 26.87 g is that it was designed by French engraver and medalist, Jean-Baptiste Galle. Galle was a prominent artist during the French Revolution and Napoleonic era, and his work can be found in various museums and collections around the world. This particular coin features a larger-than-usual effigy of Napoleon Bonaparte, which was a distinctive feature of Galle's designs.
