    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!

    Oh she purty! :D
    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.
