Part of the "Regions of France" series issued by Monnaie de Paris, this piece celebrates Roussillon through the lens of Gaultier's fashion sensibility — a pairing that produced some of the more visually eccentric entries in an already unconventional run. The series leaned heavily on collaborations with artists and designers rather than traditional heraldic or geographic imagery, a deliberate departure from how French commemoratives had been handled for decades.
The .333 fineness places this well below sterling, a compromise that kept the series accessible in price while retaining a nominal silver content.
