Yes, it has been produced. The melting point of hydrogen is around 14 K and much lower temperatures have been achieved.
There are not good pictures of solid hydrogen on the web. You could try this one:

No, because absolute zero has never been reached and that is the temperature at which hydrogen is considered a true solid. MIT has coagulated the element by getting near zero, but it still isn't in a purely solid phase.

the least temperature on the world, very very close to absolute zero, was reached by the French scientists. If there was H present in the medium, it would probably be in the solid form.

No it has not. It's freezing point is too cold to achieve in modern science. We've only ever had it as a liquid and gas.
