The western (British) portion eventually became part of Ghana, while the eastern portion, after a period as a French colony, became the independent Republic of Togo in 1960. This coin was issued by the French 1924-26 for the colony before independence; it is rather scarce today. The Patey head of ''Mlle Liberté'' appears on other French colonial coinage of the period, such as [[Cameroon 1924 50 centimes|Cameroon]].<br /> <br /> ''Recorded mintage:'' 2,064,000.<br /> <br /> ''Specification:'' aluminum bronze, 17.5 mm diameter. <br /> <br /> ''Catalog reference:'' KM 1, Lec-8. <br /> <br /> ''[[Bibliography|Source:]]''<br /> * Michael, Thomas, and Tracy L.
