Name the unit of currency in france that was discontinued on 1794

Answered by admin @



The livre (English: pound) was the money of Kingdom of France and its antecedent territory of West Francia from 781 to 1794. A few distinctive livres existed, some simultaneously. The livre was the name of the two units of record and coins. The livre was set up by Charlemagne as a unit of record equivalent to one pound of silver. It was subdivided into 20 sous (likewise sols), each of 12 deniers. The word livre originated from the Latin word libra, a Roman unit of weight. This framework and the denier itself filled in as the model for a significant number of Europe's monetary forms, including the British pound, Italian lira, Spanish dinero and the Portuguese dinheiro.
