Francja - Stare Franki

Ta seria banknotów, drukowanych w latach 1933-1958, należy do najpiękniejszych emisji Banque de France. W jej skład wchodzą przepiękne banknoty przedstawiające postacie z alegorii jak również sceny z wiejskiego krajobrazu Francji oraz ważne postacie nauki, przemysłu i polityki. Najbardziej znanym i płodnym artystą tego okresu był Clément Serveau.

Banque de France

Formed by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1800, the Banque de France was been France's central bank for more than two centuries. It provides monetary strategy, financial steadiness and client services, including printing and distributing banknotes, along with supporting regional banks across France and her territories. Since 1999, Bank of France has been a member of the Eurosystem of central banks for members of the European Union.
