The value of 20 francs can vary depending on which franc is being referenced, as several countries have used the term "franc" in their currencies, like the Swiss franc (CHF) or the former French franc (FRF). As of October 2023, 20 Swiss francs is roughly equivalent to around 22 USD or 20 EUR, but exchange rates fluctuate regularly. If referring to the historical French franc, it is no longer in circulation, and its value would depend on the context of collectibles or currency conversion at the time of its discontinuation. Always check current exchange rates for the most accurate valuation.

Up till 2002 France used its own monetary unit called the French franc. The franc was divided into 100 centimes, which were sometimes still referred to by the medieval name "sous" in the same way that US cents are usually called "pennies" In 2002 they adopted the euro along with most other countries in the EU.
No, the franc no longer exists as a currency in most countries. It was replaced by the euro in several European nations, such as France and Belgium, in 2002.

The French national anthem, "La Marseillaise," can be played on a recorder using a series of notes. The main melody typically starts with notes like C, D, E, F, and G, depending on the arrangement. For a simple version, you might play a sequence like C-C-D-E-C-D-F, but specific notes can vary based on the octave and key. It’s best to refer to a music sheet for precise notation.
