Oxford_Collector Posted January 27, 2012 Posted January 27, 2012 Hi - my wife, who is French, recently discovered a purse containing about a dozen French 10 Franc coins and some smaller denominations from the 1980s. None of the coins are in particularly good condition or rare, I think, so I was wondering if anyone knows whether it would still be possible to exchange these for the equivalent in Euros at a French bank next time we're in Paris?She also has some possibly more interesting French coins, mostly from the 1970s and 1960s, including a small number of larger coins that are real silver, that her late father had collected. My wife would prefer to sell these, I think, and I'm not so interested in collecting modern French coins (though do have some 19th and early 20th century French gold...), where would be the best place to do so - www.ebay.fr perhaps? Thanks Quote
