In 2025, to mark the 75th anniversary of Peanuts, Monnaie de Paris celebrates the famous gang of friends. Snoopy is the main character of the collection and decides to cross the Atlantic ocean to travel to France for his birthday.
This BU miniset contains circulating euros struck in BU quality, from the cent to the €2 coin.
At first glance, Peanuts is a simple, childlike comic strip, but it turns out to be extremely subtle and sensitive. Its characters need no artifice to be expressive: their simple drawings can tell a story, and they literally take shape and come to life in themetal. To meet Snoopy, the engraving workshop invited him to Paris and imagined his reactions during this wonderful birthday trip.
Engraver word
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 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.
