French money, known as the Euro, comes in the form of banknotes and coins. The banknotes feature architectural styles and time periods from across Europe, with different denominations represented by different colors and designs. The coins include denominations ranging from 1 cent to 2 Euros, each displaying a common European side and a national side specific to France.
The noun "coins" is a countable noun, specifically a plural countable noun.
The Tagalog word for coins wrapped in paper is "balot-pera."

The value of coins are greatly varying along their material and condition. A five-francs silver coin of the late 2nd Empire is only worth its weight of silver (about 16 euros) if it is not in mint condition. Gold coins (usually 20 or 50 francs face value) may fetch a few hundred euros for specimens in mint condition, and only a few dozen euros if less than that.
The first English Pennies were produced around 780 AD and were made from gold. The Canterbury Mint where the coins were minted, often put writing and runes or designs on the coins. A little while later, they began to put images of the King on the coins.
