Historically, a "brique" used to be a million of anciens Francs (old Francs), then converted to 10 000 nouveaux Francs (new Francs) in 1960.

Since the switch to euro, I think the most commonly accepted value of one "brique" is (unofficially) 10 000 €, but the uncertainty makes it basically useless.

I can't recall I've heard "brique" used since the switch to € but it might just be my local bubble
