About the french franc sign symbol

The French franc sign was the official currency symbol of France before the country adopted the euro in 2002. It is a stylized F, often written with a single or double horizontal bar through the upright stem, though the character itself uses one bar. The symbol appears on old franc banknotes, price tags, and financial documents from the period, and it is still occasionally used in historical or numismatic contexts. As a member of the Currency Symbols block, it sits alongside other now-defunct and active monetary signs in digital text encoding.
