Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that showcases the European Union's unity and diversity. The coin's obverse side features a common design shared by all Europa coins, depicting a stylized image of Europa, a mythological figure representing Europe. The reverse side, however, features a unique design for each country, in this case, France. The French design features a stylized image of a Gallic rooster, a national symbol of France, surrounded by the words "République Française" and the coin's denomination. This coin is a beautiful representation of the blend of shared European values and national identities.
