Own Gold Struck Under the Reign of Napoleon Bonaparte!

What an incredible find! Napoleon Bonaparte 20 Francs are extremely difficult to come by today -- especially in higher-graded conditions. Fortunately, our buyers have located a number of these gorgeous gold coins minted at the height of his empire!

Dated 1811, these coins circulated during Napoleon's disastrous invasion of Russia – a move that led directly to his downfall. Each of these 20 Francs coins contains .1867 ounces of gold and comes graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being in Extremely Fine-45 (XF45) condition. In addition, NGC has also certified that these coins came from the famous Rive d'Or Hoard.

Once Napoleon was defeated and exiled in 1814, coins featuring his likeness were rounded up and destroyed in an attempt to prove to the public that this time he wasn’t coming back. Of course, they were quite wrong, as he returned a year later from exile to march on Paris, temporarily seizing control once more.

These coins represent an incredibly important time in world history, and display one of history’s most interesting figures. Secure them for your collection now!
