I started to like making psot about the coin, because I learn here and there about the history of the coin, and also the history about the world that is link to the coin that I have. And some as well the value of the coin, especially some of the worthless coin that we have here in my country.
Today I learn about the The Louisiana Purchase (French: Vente de la Louisiane, lit. 'Sale of Louisiana') was the acquisition of the territory of Louisiana by the United States from the French First Republic in 1803. because of the engrave that is available on this five cent coin. This is also be the second foreign coin in my collection, I wish to be able to share more in the future.
It is really interesting how American Founder bought some of the land from the other settler in the past to build the current nation, I only know about the Alaska trade, and also the Texan part, but now I learn about the Lousiana Purchase. Such a big purchase in the past. I wonder what would it be if France didn't decide to sell its colony back then.
I was surprise a little bit when I first have this coin, because as you cna see there is this 1803 year engrave in the coin, I though that I hit a jackpot to be able to get this old coin, but it means other thing. hahaha
