The [[euro]] (<b>EUR</b> or <b>&#8364;</b>) is the common [[currency]] for most European nations within the [[European Union]], including [[France]]. The euro [[coin]]s have two different sides; one common, European side showing the value of the coin and one national side featuring a design chosen by the EU member state where the coin was minted. Each member state has one or more designs unique to that country.

'''French euro coins''' feature three separate designs for the three series of coins. The minor series was designed by Fabienne Courtiade, the middle one by Laurent Jorio and the major two coins are by Joaquim Jimenez. All designs share the 12 stars of the EU and the year of imprint as well as the letters "RF" for ''République Française'' (French Republic).
