Provenance
From my family’s personal collection. My father was an antique dealer in Austria, and many European coins in our collection came through his shop’s network. This token has been carefully stored for decades and is now offered to collectors of French or European exonumia.
Why collectors might value this:
Historical post-WWI French trade token design
Distinctive art-deco style engraving
Affordable yet historic bronze piece
Unique “Bon Pour” / commerce token style, not common circulating currency
Interesting piece of French commercial / local-issue numismatic history
Good candidate for a token or exonumia collection
