Yes it is from France but to get a value I need to know the mint mark. It is on the reverse on the bottom right. They were minted in 12 different places. The coin is called a crown by collectors that collect this sort of item. Most countries have made them, crowns that is. The U.S. silver dollar is considered a crown.
