The 24 Hours of Le Mans celebrated its centenary in 2023 — the race having first run in May 1923 on public roads around the Sarthe circuit. Monnaie de Paris issued this piece as part of a broader commemorative program marking the anniversary, timed to coincide with the June race weekend. The 2023 edition was notable for Ferrari's outright victory, ending a 58-year absence from the top step at La Sarthe.
Billon at .333 fineness places this squarely in the collector-circulation crossover category — silver enough to warrant the designation, but not fine enough for bullion consideration.
