France 20 centimes coin

20 Centimes France (Issued 1962)

The 20 centimes was a minor coin of the French franc, the currency France used until the euro replaced it in 2002. Struck in aluminium-bronze with a warm golden colour, it was a small, light coin for everyday change and belonged to the Marianne series of minor denominations introduced with the new franc.

On the obverse, the head of Marianne — the emblem of the Republic in a Phrygian cap — by Henri Lagriffoul faces left, encircled by “RÉPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE”.

On the reverse, the numeral “20” and the word “CENTIMES” stand beside an olive branch, with the motto “LIBERTÉ ÉGALITÉ FRATERNITÉ” and the year completing the field.
