The 1960 1 franc coin from France is made of aluminum and not silver. These coins were minted in aluminum from 1959 to 2001.
There is no such thing as a 1960 silver dollar coin.
No. Copper-nickel. These circulated regularly until France adopted the euro in 2002. If your coin is from circulation it's worth less than a quarter. Correction: French francs from 1960-2000 are .999 nickel and as of 8/8/2012, nickel is trading at just over double the price of copper per pound, of which a U.S. quarter is made, so the melt value of a 1960 franc is over double the value of a quarter.
Since 2002 France has used the euro; euro coins don't contain any silver. From the end of WWII to 2002, a few franc-denominated coins contained silver: 5 FF, 83.5% silver, 1960 to 1970 10 FF, 90% silver, 1965 to 1974 50 FF, 90% silver, 1974 to 1980 100 FF, 90% silver, 1982 to 2002 (very limited circulation)
It contains exactly 0% silver.
Hey, I have the same coin and I know that a 1960 franc is worth a quarter so im guessing that a 1947 franc is worth around 70 cents? 110.448.000 coins were struck in 1947, which puts your valuation wright ! For your info : in 1960 there were 406.375.000 coins struck...
value is 5 francs
$5
A 1969 1 Franc coin is worth about $0.22.
yes France 1 Franc 1898-1920 Silver (.835) - 5 g - ø 23 mm
The value of a 1924 1 Franc depends on the condition of the coin. A worn coin is valued at less than a dollar while a fully uncirculated coin is valued at 5 US dollars.
I found a 1752 franc .. What is it worth in good condition?thank youmarie
