Cleaning out my deceased parents' attic I found a stash of approximately 10k French francs. Given that France went on the euro some years back, I'm assuming these have no value. But could I be incorrect? Any ideas?

The value of the French franc was locked to the euro at 1 euro = 6.55957 FRF on 31 December 1998, and after the introduction of the euro notes and coins, ceased to be legal tender after 28 February 2002, although they were still exchangeable at banks until 19 February 2012.

Pretty screwed, probably be able to sale them to someone who collects antique money or on ebay or something.

I would check on google if there is really no chance of exchanging it.
