Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in France. Henry IV, who ruled from 1589 to 1610, was the first French monarch to issue coins with his own portrait, and this particular coin was minted during a period of civil war and religious conflict known as the Wars of Religion. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of French numismatic history.
