The 2020 France 2 euro commemorative coin honours Charles de Gaulle, marking the double anniversary of the 80th anniversary of the 18 June Appeal and the 50th anniversary of his death. The design features a portrait of the general in his military uniform, facing right, set against the backdrop of the iconic 18 June 1940 appeal broadcast. His name, 'Charles de Gaulle', is inscribed alongside the dates '1940' and '2020', reflecting his pivotal role as the leader of the Free French Forces and the first President of the Fifth Republic. This commemorative issue celebrates his enduring legacy as a symbol of French resistance and national sovereignty. The coin was issued in 2020 with a mintage of 18,000,000 pieces.
