This 1945 pattern, produced at the end of the war, bears witness to a planned revival that never came about: silver then gave way to base metals in everyday coinage. It is therefore the pattern of a type that was never reissued.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hugo Taittinger Numismatics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57609387311435,"sku":"A1036.82","price":41089.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0976\/0345\/3259\/files\/A1036.82.png?v=1781767096","url":"https:\/\/taittingernumismatics.com\/en-hk\/products\/france-silver-20-francs-turin-pattern-1945-pcgs-sp66-top-pop","provider":"Hugo Taittinger Numismatics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
