This type is dated &quot;18--&quot; but is recorded in Guilloteau as being struck in 1930 probably using an old hub taken from storage. In the event, this large size coin ended up being a 24 mm diameter coin (see [[France 1933 5 francs KM 887|KM 887]]). This was a mistake on the part of the government, as the new coin was swiftly rejected.<br /> <br /> ''Recorded mintage:'' unknown. Proofs exist in brass-plated steel, silver and gold.<br /> <br /> ''Specification:'' nickel, 37 mm diameter.<br /> <br /> ''Catalog reference:'' VG-5261.<br /> <br /> ''[[Bibliography|Source:]]''<br /> * Guilloteau, Victor, ''Monnaies Françaises, Colonies 1670-1942 et Metropole 1774-1942,'' Versailles, 1942.<br /> <br /> ''Link to:''<br /> * [[France 1930 5 centimes|1930 5 centimes]] <br /> * [[France 1930 10 centimes|1930 10 centimes]] <br /> * [[France 1930 25 centimes|1930 25 centimes]] <br /> * [[France 1933 5 francs KM 887]]<br /> * [[Coins and currency dated 1930]]<br /> * return to coins of [[France]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Selections from the Razorback Collection]]</div>
