| Additional information |
Part of the Monnaie de Paris' ongoing Astérix series, this issue commemorates Idéfix — the small white dog introduced by Goscinny and Uderzo in 1963, who became sufficiently iconic to anchor his own spinoff animated series decades later. The series has leaned heavily on the Franco-Belgian comics tradition as a vehicle for collector silver, with annual releases targeting both numismatists and dedicated Astérix fans, a dual audience that has kept secondary market premiums consistently above melt.
