Overview

Historical significance

This design was introduced in 2024 as part of a face-lift for French euro coins, specifically for the 10, 20, and 50 cent denominations. It replaces the previous 'Sower' design. The three new designs by Joaquin Jimenez pay tribute to exceptional women: Simone Veil (10c), Josephine Baker (20c), and Marie Curie (50c). This specific coin honors the scientist Marie Curie.

Estimated value

€0.50 (Face value). Being a common circulation coin, its numismatic value is minimal unless in pristine, uncirculated condition.

Care & preservation

Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid cleaning with harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as this will damage the surface and reduce any potential collector value. Handle by the edges to avoid fingerprint oils.
