A bunch of interesting coins for 1796 and 1795!

France 1795-1796 (year 4), 5 centimes.



Seemingly insignificant, this is the very first coin in the new franc system introduced a few years after the French revolution. It is also the first time Marianne, the well-known symbol for the French republic, appears on a coin.

Great piece of numismatic history. Thank you!

1795 6 groszy, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Last year of Poland striking coins as a sovereign state until the early 20th century.
