Pierre de Coubertin's connection to the 20-franc denomination is appropriately timed: the coin appeared in 1994, the centenary year of the IOC's founding in Paris. The essai designation places this piece outside normal circulation — French trial strikes of this period were produced in controlled quantities for official approval and collector distribution through the Monnaie de Paris, never intended to pass through commerce.
The trimetallic format itself was relatively new to French coinage in the mid-1990s, introduced with the bimetallic 10-franc series and then pushed further with three-component construction on the 20-franc pieces.
