Interesting fact

The 50 Euro (Ecu de 6 Livres) 2018 gold coin from France features an unusual design, with a stylized image of a Gallic rooster standing on a shield, surrounded by a wreath of oak leaves. The rooster is depicted in a dynamic pose, with its wings spread wide and its beak open, giving the impression of a fierce and proud bird ready to defend its territory.
