Talk:French euro coins

I'm pretty sure the tree symbol used to be on the 2 Franc coin. Can anyone confirm? -- Tarquin

WRONG!! everything is wrong T_T
* = No coins were minted that year for that denomination That's wrong. Coins were minted, but only in small quantities only avilable in sets. I've already seen a french 1 Euro coin from 2005, etc. on fairs (means: they exist!). It should be marked with *** not with *. Take a look at ebay, you'll find many of there *-marked coins there. Someone really should correct it. Otherwise I'll replace the * with ** (no data avilable.) Better no data than wrong data..

Btw.. the reference (not even the official national bank page..) say for example: France 2005, 50 Cent "---". Which means: --- : The coin has only been minted for collector folders and does not exist in circulation.

Would be quite cool, if someone could add the data given in the reverence ;) Or perhaps try to find a reference at the french national bank page.

Bah, hate trolls adding wrong information to wikipedia.. so annoying.... --91.61.65.192 (talk) 07:54, 14 October 2013 (UTC)

new design?
There reads: a new design on the French euro coins is expected in the near future

It's been over six years from that recommendation, so is that only a theoretical expectation? They aren't the only one; Austria, Germany and Italy are also yet to update their coins... 82.141.95.20 (talk) 10:22, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
