    Description

    The gift of a coin to a child is a lasting and timeless gift. Each coin is engraved with the year, making it a unique and personalised gift. The coin can be kept for life, marking the start of a precious collection that could grow over the years. It's a symbolic gift that crosses generations. Whether for a birth, christening or any other special occasion, this collection is perfect for celebrating life's precious moments.

    On the obverse of this coloured 5€ Silver BE coin, a new denomination developed for this collection, the whole team is gathered to celebrate a happy event: the arrival of a newborn baby in the forest! Everyone has brought gifts and cheerfulness for this wonderful day. The bear, fox, bunny and mouse are brought to life by a selective deposit of transparent ink.

    Sold in a triptych packaging, this coin can be displayed on a commode or a shelf. A space is left empty on the left-hand flap to write a note, and there are two notches on the right-hand flap to insert an image.

    The Collection

    To commemorate a memorable event in a child's life, the Monnaie de Paris launches a brand new collection entitled "My First Coin." Giving a child their first coin is a symbolic, lasting, and timeless gift that will be passed down through generations. Whether it's for a birth, a christening, or any other special occasion, this collection is perfect for celebrating the precious moments of life.

    This new collection immerses us in a poetic and light universe, perfectly in line with the gift-oriented nature of this product range. Who doesn't have a child in their circle to whom they could give their first coin? It's a gift with great symbolic value that will accompany them throughout their life. Four little animals (fox, rabbit, mouse, and bear) share their gentle adventures through the illustrations on the product packaging. For the first edition, the little fox is prominently featured on the common 5€ coin, and the little mouse serves as a recurring motif on the reverse side of each coin.

    Our craftman

    • THE ENGRAVER

      Trained at the best schools, they have the years of experience behind them necessary to master all aspects of the craft. Using industrial oil-based modelling clay and working from a design executed freehand or with CAD software, they skilfully fashion a low relief model in order to enhance the engraving and the way it catches the light. They work alternately with concave and convex plaster moulds until satisfied they have achieved the best 3D rendering of the design.

    • THE MINTER

      The first minters began to ply their trade in France when striking with a hammer appeared in the 4th century BC. Nowdays, minsters use press instead of a hammer. Their knowledge of dies, engraving and metals, and their expertise - passed seamlessly down from one generation to the next for centuries - guarantees the excellence of their work.
