- FRANCE. 5 Francs, L'An 12 (1803/4)-A. Paris Mint. Napoleon (as First Consul). PCGS AU-58. KM-659.1; Gad-577. A handsome example of this iconic Napoleonic issue with a blend of deep blue, violet, and magenta-gray patina across both sides. The devices are well formed for the issue, but the true beauty of this piece can be noted when remarkably smooth, untouched fields are studied beneath a glass. Absent wear or handling, their texture is exceptional, and when rotated under a light, they unleash substantial mint luster from multiple angles. Combining original eye appeal with rarity, the present coin will be hotly contested at auction. Estimate: $1,000 - $1,500. Click here for certification details from PCGS.
