Convert Fr 4.10

Fr, also known as "Franc" or "French Franc" in English, was the currency of France from 1795 until 2002. It was replaced by the Euro as part of the European Union's monetary system.

The Franc was first introduced in 1795, during the French Revolution, and went through several changes over the years. One Franc was initially divided into 10 "décimes," which were later replaced by centimes. In 1960, the "new franc" was introduced at a rate of 100 old francs to one new franc. This currency remained in circulation until the Euro's introduction in 2002.

The Franc played an important role in France's economic and political history. It was also used as a reserve currency by other countries, particularly in Africa, where many countries still use the Franc as their national currency today.

Although the Franc is no longer used as a legal tender currency, it remains a popular item among collectors of coins and banknotes. Many people still associate the Franc with French culture and history, making it a symbol of national identity for some.
