    Vichy France 2 Franc coin from WWII. Unusual find

  • @iolitelight
    @iolitelight Месяц назад +3

    The silver Roman coin is a true treasure! And that French coin is actually quite a find. How did a WWII coin from the Nazi backed Vichy government find its way to Scotland? République Française was replaced with État Français and Libérté Fraternité Égalité was replaced with Travail Famille Patrie. The Nazis installed a puppet leader at Vichy, a WWI hero Maréchal Philippe Pétain. The actual leader of France was Charles De Gaulle who was in exile in London.

  • @KlugscheisserDan
    @KlugscheisserDan Месяц назад +4

    Your French coin two francs are from the facsist Vichy government of France. The leader was A guy called Petain. The motto on the obverse is travaille famille Patri which translates as work family and nation. And the coin is not issued from the republished francaise but from simply France.

It was only 30USD at the time, but it has no provenance. I love how the UK rules help preserve the history. DIVVS (Divus) ANTONINO or some variation.. not DEUS. Yes, CONSECRATIO / Pyre.
