Its classic round shape features the embossed inscription \"DÉPARTEMENT DE LA HTE GARONNE 1922 B.P. 10 C. 1927 TOULOUSE – ENNOM\", arranged around a large central \"10 C.\" digit. The surface of the token reveals a matte grey patina, characteristic of the metal alloys used for manufacturing coins and utility tokens of that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lettering is clear and legible, with embossed characters. The graphic style, sober and functional, conforms to official productions of administrative tokens from the early 20th century. The visible edge appears smooth, without any particular decoration. The token is presented in an old molded-decor case, which highlights its heritage dimension, but only the obverse is visible in the photo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe years \"1922\" and \"1927\" are clearly indicated, suggesting an issue or validity during this period. The use of \"10 C.\" indicates a face value of 10 centimes, typical of necessity or replacement tokens used in the local economy during the interwar period. The inscription \"TOULOUSE\" specifies the geographical origin of the issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface shows some signs of wear, indicating circulation or handling over time. No chips or major damage are visible on the photographed side, but the patina and micro-scratches enhance the authenticity of the object. This token is notable for its regional historical interest and its generally satisfactory state of preservation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
