1960 None 1 Franc

The 1960 French 1 Franc coin features the 'Sower' design by Oscar Roty, depicting Marianne, the personification of the French Republic, sowing seeds as she strides forward. The reverse side displays a value designation and a laurel branch, symbolizing peace and victory. These coins were widely circulated and represent a significant period in France's numismatic history, post-World War II and during the economic rebirth known as the Trente Glorieuses.
