| Additional information |
Banette is a French bread-baking cooperative founded in 1963, and its promotional token issues — including this piece — were distributed through participating bakeries as part of loyalty and marketing campaigns. These "écus gourmands" circulated informally as collectibles rather than currency, with no legal tender status at any point.
