The Iron Lady Lights Up the Night

Every night by sundown, the Eiffel Tower in France lights up the Paris skyline with a dazzling display of sparkling golden lights. The glittering display lasts a full five minutes and is repeated every hour until 1 a.m. It’s a beautiful sight, and part of the reason this global icon has been seen by more than 250 million visitors since it was completed in 1889, making it the most visited paid monument in the world!

To pay tribute to the Eiffel Tower’s 130 anniversary, the Monnaie de Paris (The Paris Mint) has released this spectacular silver proof struck in five ounces of highly pure 95% silver. It’s a 50 Euro legal-tender coin that celebrates the Eiffel Tower’s by showcasing the daily phenomenon of its dazzling evening light show. Just look at the coin and you’ll see a gorgeous aerial view of the tower, with the city lavished in black rhodium. From the top of the Tower come six beams of light splitting the night sky, depicted using deposits of gold. The combination of the three metals makes for a stunning contrast that beautifully displays every aspect of the design. The reverse identifies the coin as a part of the mint’s “Treasures of Paris” series and presents a modern representation of Paris and its districts.

The official mint of the French government, the Monnaie de Paris is famous the world over for the beauty and quality of its coins and medals. That reputation is well-deserved on this coin struck in gorgeous Proof condition by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields.

French culture is respected the world over, and nothing says “French” and represents Paris more indisputably than the Eiffel Tower. Completed in 1889 to serve as the entrance to the 1889 World’s Fair, the Eiffel Tower was constructed out of iron, which led to its nickname “The Iron Lady” that is still used by Parisians today.

Just 250 of these special anniversary coins were struck, making this commemorative issue one of the smallest we’ve seen. Our limited supply will go fast so don’t miss out. Reserve yours today!
