This token is struck by Pichard Balme in Saumur, a subsidiary of Arthus Bertrand since its takeover in 1999.
The Franco-British Memorial is a First World War memorial located in the commune of Authuille, near the village of Thiepval, in the Somme department. It is dedicated to the Franco-British armies and British soldiers who went missing during the Battle of the Somme in the second half of 1916. A military cemetery where French and British soldiers are buried lies at its foot. A visitor and interpretation center has been built at the entrance to the site.
