In 1795 France established the decimal franc as the national currency in the wake of the revolution, but it was 1799 before it became the only official currency in circulation. We are now offering this set of 3 coins, a 1 and 5 centime, along with a 10 centime (known as a decime) from the period between 1795 and 1799, though they are all dated according to the revolutionary calendar. The coins are all circulated in VG-Fine condition, though some dates are unclear.
