Commentary
D’après Mazard, cette pièce qui est au module de la 20 francs Turin a été frappée suite à une initiative privée ce qui explique qu'elle ne porte pas de valeur faciale. Sa commercialisation a été interdite, malgré son réel succès public, pour contrefaçon d'un type monétaire. Lorsque l'on se replace dans le contexte de l'époque et de la montée des périls, il est compréhensible que le public ait été très sensible à cette conjugaison des symboles de la Semeuse et des leaders politiques, symboles de la paix. Georges Clémenceau (1841-1929), le père de la Victoire, Raymond Poincaré (1860-1934), le restaurateur du Franc, Aristide Briand (1862-1932), plusieurs fois Président du Conseil, signataire avec Stresemann du Traité de désarmement franco-allemand, représentaient les espoirs d'une France saignée par la Grande Guerre".
According to Mazard, this coin, which is the size of the 20 Turin francs, was struck following a private initiative, which explains why it does not bear a face value. Its marketing was banned, despite its real public success, for counterfeiting of a monetary type. When we put ourselves in the context of the time and the rise of perils, it is understandable that the public was very sensitive to this combination of the symbols of the Sower and political leaders, symbols of peace. Georges Clémenceau (1841-1929), the father of Victory, Raymond Poincaré (1860-1934), the restorer of the Franc, Aristide Briand (1862-1932), several times President of the Council, signatory with Stresemann of the Franco-German Disarmament Treaty, represented the hopes of a France bled dry by the Great War.
