He is remembered for ending the Indochina War within the thirty-one-day deadline he set himself, for opening the path to Tunisian autonomy, and — outside government — for a campaign to put a glass of milk in front of every French schoolchild. He died in October 1982. The 1992 coin marks the tenth anniversary of his death; the engraver Émile Rousseau — who also signed the Zola Germinal — chose a deliberately documentary register, with no allegorical frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"monnaie de paris","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53100419809547,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0917\/0701\/5435\/files\/pierre-mendes.webp?v=1778178476","url":"https:\/\/shop.numisnexus.com\/en\/products\/pierre-mendes-france-5-francs-1992","provider":"Numisnexus","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
