The 10 Francs Hercule is one of the most beloved and widely collected French coins, minted during the "Trente Glorieuses" (post-war economic boom) from 1964 to 1973 under Presidents Charles de Gaulle and Georges Pompidou. It takes its name from its central motif: "Hercules at Rest", inspired by classical sculpture.
This coin was introduced to replace the worn 10-Franc banknotes and facilitate everyday transactions. Struck in 835‰ silver (83.5% silver, 16.5% copper, known as "legal silver" to reduce costs), it was demonetized in 1980 but remains a favorite among collectors due to its artistic design and silver content.
