This listing is for one 1919 Silver 1 Franc coin from France, as pictured. BU (Uncirculated). Great mint luster. 

1 Franc coins featuring this design and minted in silver were produced for only 22 years, between 1898 and 1920. Post 1920, the design remained the same, but the composition changed to stainless steel.

World War I and the aftermath brought substantial changes to the coinage in France. Gold coinage was suspended and the franc was debased. Smaller, holed 5, 10, and 25-centime coins minted in nickel or cupro-nickel were introduced in 1914, finally replacing copper in 1921.

In 1920, 1 and 2-centime coins were discontinued and production of silver coinage ceased, with aluminium-bronze 50-centime, 1-franc, and 2-franc coins introduced. Until 1929, these coins were issued by the chambers of commerce, bearing the phrase bon pour on it (translated: "good for").
