[QUOTE="chrisild, post: 2607890, member: 39"]Lots of ugly ;) coins have been issued by countries that I do not actively collect. So pieces from Niue or Palau I can safely ignore ... in this topic too. In my collection, one of my all-time non-favorites is the 50 Years of German Television collector coin, see [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/post-your-ugliest-non-damaged-coin.60172/#post-636593']this post[/URL]. As for the French 10 francs piece, well, what I don't like about it is how they combined the "denomination band" (good IMO) and the ornate obverse. The funny thing is that this coin was replaced by a smaller one (Jimenez's République) in 1986 which then was replaced by ... Mathieu's old piece, hehe. The later bimetallic coins (Génie de la Bastille, Mont Saint Michel) I like. Christian[/QUOTE]
