French Gold 20 Francs Rooster AU (Random)

The French Gold 20 Francs Rooster AU is a classic Gold French coin, recognized worldwide.  Produced at the Paris mint, one of the oldest institutions in France, the French 20 Franc Rooster is arguably one of the most beautiful of the French Francs.  These Gold 20 Francs were minted from 1899 until 1914.

These Gold 20 Francs are 90% Gold and contain .1867 ounce of actual Gold weight.  These coins are not a full troy oz like modern day Gold bullion coins.

The image on the obverse side of the French 20 Franc Rooster is of Marianne, Goddess of Liberty and is symbolic of the French Republic. The reverse side is a stunning depiction of a Gallic Rooster, regal in its appearance and posture.

These coins are better suited for the collector, or someone looking to add historic variety to their precious metals collection.  If you are looking to purchase sovereign mainstream Gold bullion coins, we suggest you consider the Canadian Gold Maple Leaf pure Gold coins instead.

Add a bit of history to your precious metals portfolio with these French 20 Franc gold coins.
