1792 French Revolution

this dollar-size copper 5 sol piece (weight 28 grams) was commerialized by the Monneron brothers in Paris and produced by early steam-powered mills in the UK

great natural toning of copper, in this case caramel-like
other pieces get reddish hues (iron impurities) or verdigris (green copper acetate)

1792 third example of the Monneron 5 sol piece

this piece is more dark red brown (iron impurities)

the three examples of the same type of coin illustrate the wonderful world of old copper toned coins
