Comments

Monnaie de Paris strikes coins for France since year 864. The treasures, that belongs to its heritage, are the series’ essence. It recounts France’s History on some twenty coins, going from the Roman period until today.
The series will be launched in two stages: the first wave in March 2019 and the second one in September 2019. It is composed of 18 10€ Silver coins depicting former french currencies.
Two uncoloured 50€ Silver coins, two uncoloured 50€ Silver coins and the 200€ Gold coin complete the series and present strong French symbols.
