About this banknote
The Banque de France issued the 200 francs "Montesquieu" banknote in 1981, with circulation beginning on July 7, 1982. This series was introduced to replace the previous 200 francs note featuring Victor Hugo, aligning with the Banque de France's initiative to update its banknotes with designs honoring prominent French figures.
The front of the note displays a portrait of Charles de Montesquieu on the right, accompanied by a figure holding a staff on the left. The reverse features another image of Montesquieu on the left and an illustration of the Château de La Brède, his birthplace. The note measures 92 x 172 mm and was demonetized on April 1, 1998.
