Comment

Part of a series of 15 coins designed by Christian Lacroix that trace the line of French rulers from King Clovis who united the Frankish tribes to François Mitterand, the longest-serving prime minister of the Republic. The coins were released in both silver and gold at three coins per year over 5 years, culminating in 2015. Although sold individually, Monnaie de Paris also issued a special casket for collectors to unite the complete sets in either silver or gold.

Interesting fact

The obverse side of the coin depicts a portrait of King Henri IV, who ruled France from 1589 to 1610, while the reverse side features a stunning representation of the famous Pont Neuf bridge in Paris, which was built during Henri IV's reign. The coin's design serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Henri IV and the cultural achievements of France during his time.
