… you can had those figures in 54mm.
"You may be familiar with the "French" figures Mokarex. Well in Belgium, the coffee brand Storme used the same ones as a promotion. From 1963, the purchase of 500gr of their coffee was entitled to a figure of 54mm. They were all produced by the same studio that Mokarex, however, it's considered the finest engraving. Judge for yourself"

This certainly puts to shame some of the baubles and trinkets offered by fast-food places with their happy meals.

Can you imagine what might be offered from a wine or champagne business?

Salut,

If you agree, maybe I'll have to come back to you in the future regarding this project.

Kind regards,

Interesting. I could easily drink enough coffee to get the whole collection in a couple of weeks!

Benoit: Armand was very helpful to me when I was working on a Paraguayan War project. Here's hoping you can convince him to assist with yours.
