1813-A France 20 Franc Napoleon I NGC AU55
Nothing Comes Up Short About this Napoleon 20 Francs Gold Coin!
Known as one of the most powerful men in the 17th century, Napoleon Bonaparte was emperor of France from 1804-1815 -- right when these compelling gold coins were minted! He became so powerful, that these coins were produced in his honor. After a string of military victories, he became a dominant European leader like none other and at an approximate height of 5’4", he was nothing short of being one of the most notorious world leaders in history! Now you can own a vintage Napoleon 20 francs GOLD coin, struck two centuries ago, engraved with his picture during his reign!
FRENCH, GOLD AND VINTAGE -- This 1813 gold francs coin honors the extraordinary French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte and is a genuine artifact from that era! Immediately, you'll notice the Pierre Joseph Tiolier-engraved portrait of the laurel-headed Napoleon on the obverse, along with the inscription NAPOLEON EMPEREUR. The reverse is classically inscribed with 20 FRANCS, the year of minting and EMIPRE FRANCAIS at the top. And perhaps best of all, each of these coins is produced in .900 gold!
AU55 GRADING -- These coins are in solid condition, given the fact that they're over a century old! Each is 6.45 grams of 90% gold and graded in AU55 (About Uncirculated) condition by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), one of the leading third-party coin grading services in the world. This means the coins have only slight wear on less than 50% of the design with full details. A remarkable condition for these coins to be in, as they were circulated HEAVILY. These coins in any grade are extremely difficult to find, but now we can offer these historical artifacts to you, to enhance your treasured coin collection!
SONICALLY SEALED -- Your coin will arrive sonically sealed in an acrylic case, for the best protection while giving you clear sightlines into its vintage details. This coin is authenticated, graded and encapsulated by NGC.
SHORT-LIVED MINTAGE, LOW SURVIVAL RATE --These coins were only struck for a short 12 years from 1803-1815. We were lucky enough to wrangle these from 1813 and are bringing them to you for a fraction of what you might find them for in another venue – IF they’re even able to locate anywhere else!
At over a century old, these Napoleons are highly sought after by collectors. Even with a mintage of several million, hardly any of these coins survived. Getting our hands on ANY quantity of vintage 20 francs is truly a daunting task. But our savvy buyer happened to hit the old-gold jackpot and these 1813-A coins were part of that horde.
