My last occasion to post one of these today:
French republic, 50 Centimes 1898, type 'semeuse', https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces691.html

These early ones are harder to find in a decent grade. Guess the 1897 pilot series (mintage 88 K) of these coins are most rare.

3rd Centavos and my first holed coin; unfortunately it was coated in a thick layer of copper saturated mud and I had to abrade it. Under it it was quite well preserved, only the face had slight corrosion damage.

Great coin! But there's one thing I do not understand: why isn't there a place in the catalogue for Austro-Hungarian coins? I mean, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was a total different country than the current Austria, so why can't there be a special section for it?

The Austrian and Hungarian halves of the empire issued different coins with the same metal content but different designs and slightly different names (corona and korona, kreutzer and krajczár, florin and forint, heller and fillér). So they are considered to be part of either Austria or Hungary. Now, if there was a general issue meant for circulation in the entire Dual Monarchy, then that would probably have to be put under a new Austria-Hungary country in Numista - but there was never such a coin.

I have always wondered how common it was to find Austrian coins in Hungary and Hungarian coins in Austria during this period.
