Celebrate the spirit of France through a striking modern collectible that unites national heritage, artistry, and sporting excellence. This beautifully crafted hexagonal 3g gold coin from Monnaie de Paris pays tribute to Paris as host city and showcases the innovation of one of the world’s oldest mints.
For this special release, Monnaie de Paris introduced a bold hexagonal format inspired by the shape of France itself. The obverse features the iconic Genie in motion, throwing a discus across an athletics stadium, while the legendary Arc de Triomphe rises in the background as a symbol of Parisian grandeur. The result is a contemporary gold issue that captures athletic energy, national pride, and French design excellence in one elegant piece.
With a limited mintage of only 15,000 coins worldwide, this release offers strong appeal to collectors of world gold coins, Olympic-themed issues, and rare modern European numismatics. Struck in .999 fine gold and presented in Brilliant Uncirculated condition, it is a compact yet highly desirable addition to any serious collection.
