For part 15 I have a coin that resembles that of our own Mercury Dime. This is a 1905 25 Centimes coins that comes from the Republic of France. I have always found this coin very beautiful, especially the obverse, as it resembles the Mercury Dime. Although mine isn’t FB, it is still a very nice piece, and one that will be treasured forever! This reverse was only used for two years on the 25 centimes! 1904 and 1905. Take a look, and Enjoy Y’all! P.S. Here is the list of the last Coins Outta The Vaults, in case you missed one. Also, I am taking a brake from this series, I will post more in a week or two.

Oh she purty! I'm thinking about getting a 1904, so I can say that I have a "complete" set! LOL But it is hard not to get them all, because the obverse is so beautiful.
T.. I think she looks like Ceres or Marianne. They are all beautiful. What do you think? Traci T..have you seen the French 1913 Calvaryman coin yet?
