France Collectible Silver Coin Napoleon III 2023 14.4 g of Pure Silver 0,900

Issued by Monnaie de Paris, this collectible silver coin forms part of a program dedicated to the great symbols of French numismatic heritage, reinterpreted through contemporary coin design. Struck from 0,900 pure silver and weighing 14.4 g, the release revisits the historic Napoleonic franc engraved by Jean-Jacques Barre. The obverse presents a laureate portrait of Emperor Napoleon III, whose profile reflects the iconography of Napoleon I and ultimately the classical image of the Roman Emperor Julius Caesar. To the right appears the Napoleonic coat of arms, originally featured on imperial coin reverses. The reverse emphasizes the continuity of three historical eras within a hexagonal composition symbolizing France and incorporates heraldic elements inspired by the national flag. The face value, the RF designation, and official guarantee marks complete the artistic and numismatic composition.
