No. 1412 Rene Coty. President of the Republic. His term is marked by the arrival of Pierre Mendès France as President of the Council of Ministers, the end of the Indochina War, the beginning of the Algerian War, and the return of General de Gaulle to power, which led to the founding of the Fifth Republic and his voluntary departure in January 1959 from the presidency of the Republic to make way for de Gaulle, "the most illustrious of the French," as President Coty called him. To best organize these stamps, La Maison du Collectionneur recommends the Climax stamp albums or the Safe album pages.
