<p>[QUOTE=&quot;celticoin, post: 512531, member: 17134&quot;]As an aside, when travelling in student days, I visited Paris in 1972. These old Vichy 1 and 2 franc coins were sometimes used as centimes to make change. One shop had galvanized buckets full of them under the counter.</p><p>By then 1 centime was so small an amount that new 1 c coins were seldom seen, and most stores declined to gve change, but just rounded up the prices (very French of them, but some US stores were doing the same).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
