Silver 1 Franc coin of the “Semeuse” type, with an allegorical representation of the Republic sowing to the wind, the work of Oscar Roty, in a modernist style with great dynamism in the treatment of the folds and the movement of the hair. The reverse features the value 1 FRANC on an olive branch, surrounded by the national motto, in a balanced and elegant composition.

The fields show slight marks typical of its grade, maintaining an overall harmonious and attractive appearance in line with its MS63 condition.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
