Historical Context: This 10 Centimes silver pattern from 1918 illuminates French numismatic history during World War I. Issued by the Commune of Dijon's Chambre de commerce, it exemplifies 'monnaies de nécessité'—emergency currency prompted by wartime economic dislocation and metal shortages. Official coinage was hoarded, compelling local authorities to provide essential small change.
