Small iconic elves, the Smurfs make their first appearance in the album of Johan and Pirlouit "La Flute à Six Smurfs" invented by Peyo in 1958. Since then, these blue characters, cheeky and styled with white people live adventures through many albums .

The currency of Paris pays homage in 2020 to the comic strip and the work of Peyo as well as the hundred iconic characters, all similar but different by their character.

It is the Smurf which introduces the notion of money in the village. Some are enriched and others find themselves without the penny and the harmony of the village shatters. The financial smurf realizes his error and everything ends up going back to normal.
