I posted pictures here: https://goccf.com/t/36291

I finally found some similar coins on ebay, but the sellers didn't give any information on it... Does anyone know the history for the French 5centime?

Thanks!

It is, as you say, a French 5 centime. Listed in the catalogues as KM# 842; example on WCG. Five centime coins were issued with this design from 1898 up to the start of WWI, and again for a couple of years after the war ended.

You can view a larger photo by clicking on the image. (The piece depicted there is somewhat expensive due to its grade.)

Thanks for the info!

Mine isn't quite that good quality, but it's still decent (especially since I only spent 25 cents on it )

I've been lucky, every coin I have has been bought for 25 cents or less
