Description
The 1984 Semeuse 5 Francs coin is a French coin. It was struck in copper-nickel and weighs 10 grams, with a diameter of 29 millimeters. This coin comes from a Fleur de Coin (FDC) set, indicating that it is in exceptional condition.
The obverse of the coin features the Semeuse motif, a classic allegory of the French Republic. In the background, a rising sun is drawn on the horizon, symbolizing a new day and hope. The legend "REPUBLIQUE FRANÇAISE" is inscribed in capital letters, surrounding the central figure. The signature "O. Roty" also appears, indicating that the design was created by the engraver Louis-Oscar Roty.
The reverse of the coin features a set of plant symbols, including an olive branch, an oak branch, and an ear of wheat. These elements represent peace, strength, and prosperity, respectively. The face value "5 FRANCS" is placed above these symbols. The national motto "LIBERTE ? EGALITE ? FRATERNITE" encircles the composition, recalling the fundamental values of the French Republic.
The edge of the coin is reeded, offering a distinctive texture to the touch. The design of this coin, both on the obverse and reverse, is also the work of Louis-Oscar Roty.
