1950-1958 French Fourth Republic CU-AI 10 Francs Avg Circ
During the mid-century era of the French Fourth Republic, everyday commerce was conducted with beautifully designed coinage that captured the national spirit. Minted from 1950 to 1958, this 10 Francs coin is struck in a distinctive copper-aluminum alloy, giving it a warm, golden-hued appearance. These pieces survive today in average circulated condition, carrying the honest wear of their journey through post-war France. The obverse features a left-facing profile of Liberty, a timeless symbol of the nation, accompanied by the inscription REPUBLIQUE FRANCAISE. On the reverse, a proud rooster faces right, positioned alongside a delicate laurel branch beneath the bold denomination of 10 FRANCS. The reverse also displays the traditional national motto of LIBERTE, EGALITE, FRATERNITE, anchoring the coin's design in the core values of the republic.
