The 20 Francs Bayard banknote, dated December 14, 1918, is a testament to French monetary history. This banknote belongs to series C.6002.

On the obverse, the banknote features a complex ornamental design, typical of the style of the time. The face value, "20 Francs", is inscribed in words and numbers, prominently, to avoid any confusion. The name of the issuing bank, Banque de France, also appears on the obverse. The signature of the cashier and that of the Secretary General are affixed, authenticating the banknote. The unique serial number, C.6002, is printed in red or black, allowing individual identification of each banknote.

The reverse of the banknote features decorative elements similar to those on the obverse, creating visual consistency. The mention "Banque de France" is repeated, as is the face value. A legal text is generally included, recalling the penal sanctions incurred in the event of counterfeiting. The colors used are often soft shades, such as blue, green or sepia, giving the banknote an appearance that is both elegant and secure. The paper used is security paper, specially designed to prevent falsification, sometimes incorporating a watermark visible through transparency.

The dimensions of the banknote are designed to facilitate its handling and storage in wallets and cash registers. The state of preservation of these banknotes varies considerably, ranging from "Mint" (perfect condition, without folds or stains) to "Very Poor" (very worn, torn, with missing parts). The numismatic value of these banknotes depends on their rarity, their state of preservation and the demand of collectors.
