1957 French 100 Francs Coin - UNC (Uncirculated) Condition - One Hundred Franc Coin 1957 France - Copper Nickel - Mint Luster - High Grade
This listing is for one 1957 French 100 Francs Coin, from France, as pictured. In Brilliant Uncirculated Condition.
The events of the Second World War affected the coinage substantially in France. In 1941, aluminium replaced aluminium-bronze in the 50 centimes, and 1, 2, and 5 francs as copper and nickel were diverted into the War Effort. In 1942, following German occupation and the installation of the French Vichy State, a new, short lived series of coins was released which included holed 10 and 20 centimes in zinc. 50 centimes, and 1 and 2 francs were aluminium. In 1944 this series was discontinued and withdrawn and the previous issue was resumed.
Following the war, rapid inflation caused denominations below 1 franc to be withdrawn from circulation while 10 francs in copper nickel were introduced, followed by reduced size 10-franc coins in aluminium-bronze in 1950, along with 20 and 50-franc coins of the same composition. In 1954, copper-nickel 100 francs were introduced.

I bought a few, especially since I'm overseas and postage costs can be extremely high, but the delivery fee was why I chose this seller - it wasn't exorbitant for a change! Given this alone, I'll be back! The coins were packed flat (letter style), encased in plastic covering and not touching each other to prevent damage during postage - despite being on the other side of the world, they arrived safely - and quickly! Thank you so much! Photo included is just an example of a couple of the coins from the order I received. HideReviewed ProductPosted on
