This French collector's coin, with a face value of 5 centimes, was minted in the year 2000. It belongs to the Lagriffoul series and features a Proof (BE) strike quality, demonstrating special care taken in its production.
The coin is made of Nordic gold, a specific alloy giving it a distinctive yellow color. It weighs 2 grams, and its diameter measures 17 millimeters. The mintage of this edition is limited to 15,000 copies, making it a relatively rare and sought-after coin by collectors.
The design of the coin is attributed to Lagriffoul. On the obverse, there is a representation of Marianne, an allegorical symbol of the French Republic. She is wearing a Phrygian cap and surrounded by ears of wheat, symbols of fertility and abundance. The legend "République Française" is inscribed in an arc above the figure.
On the reverse, the face value "5 centimes" is clearly indicated, accompanied by a stylized representation of a tree. The minting date, "2000", also appears on this side of the coin. The overall design is sober and uncluttered, highlighting the republican symbols and the value of the coin. The edge is smooth.
