| Additional information |
Le Havre was among roughly forty French cities that issued local 10-euro denominated tokens in 1996, during the window between France's commitment to the single currency and its physical introduction — a kind of civic anticipation struck in metal. These pieces circulated as novelty legal tender within participating municipalities, more souvenir than specie, and most never left a drawer.
