To make international transactions easier, many European nations cooperated on creating a standard issue of purity and gold content on the 20 Franc coin, a purity of .900 fine gold and a pure gold weight of .1867 troy ounces. This standardization paved the way to many different versions of the 20 Franc, many of which Monument Metals carries on a regular basis. We offer the French 20 Franc Napoleon III, Swiss 20 Franc Helvetia, French 20 Franc Angel, French 20 Franc Rooster, and Italian 20 Lire, among others.

Monument Metals specializes in European gold coins. We also carry the famous French 20 Franc Ceres coin, which was minted for only three years during the French Revolution, between 1849-1851.
