Description
This blister includes the six 10, 20 and 50 centime coins, issued in 2023 and 2024, minted in Proof quality. Historically dedicated to the Sower, the three 2024 denominations will honor three exceptional women who have contributed to the elevation of France and its international influence. The timeless figure of the sower imagined by engraver Oscar Roty will always feature on all three denominations, as a tribute to the euro designs that have accompanied us for over 20 years.
Struck in a limited edition of only 10 000 copies, this set features the new cents designs which will enter circulation in January 2024. The juxtaposition of the denominations allows us to observe the evolution of the national faces, designed more than 20 years apart by Joaquin Jiménez, Engraver General of the Monnaie de Paris.
The Collection
Discover all the official and complete series of Euros in Brilliant Universal and Proof quality with, in 2024, a change on the sides of the 10, 20 and 50 euro cent coins.
After bringing to light Oscar Roty's original Sower model in 2021, we wanted to give a new dynamic to this numismatic and republican figure by engraving three visages on circulating coins. Named The sowers, these three feminine portraits are presented as an allegory of the republic, inspiring symbols radiating us with their heritage.
Engraver word
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.
