Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Liard coin with the bare bust of Louis XIV is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in France. The coin was introduced in 1713, and its production was discontinued in 1715, which suggests that it may have been a response to the financial challenges faced by the French government during that period. Despite its relatively short production run, the coin remains a popular collector's item among numismatists today.
