The 3rd Republic of France adopted La Marseillaise as its national anthem; July 14 as its independence day, and repurposed the classic sower design as Marianne, its symbol of Liberty wearing a freedom cap. This 1 Franc coin was struck in 83.5% silver from 1898-1920. Marianne sows the seeds of new ideas as the sun rises behind her. The reverse features an olive branch and the national motto liberty, equality, fraternity. Add this silver coin to your collection or give to your favorite Francophile!
