Additional information

Issued on January 1, 1999 — the exact date the euro was introduced as an accounting currency across eleven EU member states — this piece marked the irrevocable fixing of legacy national currencies to the new unit. France's conversion rate was set at 6.55957 francs to one euro, a figure precise enough to be reproduced on the coin itself.
