| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is dedicated to the city of Lyon and its historic silk-weaving tradition, as interpreted by fashion designer Jean Paul Gaultier. In the foreground, a shirtless male figure is depicted at a loom, weaving a marinière — the iconic striped garment closely associated with the Gaultier aesthetic. The emerging fabric and loom occupy the central field, evoking Lyon's celebrated textile heritage. In the lower portion of the design, the distinctive silhouette of the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière is rendered against the city's skyline. The legend 'LA FRANCE par Jean-Paul Gaultier' appears within the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Part of Monnaie de Paris's long-running "Regions of France" collector series, this piece falls within the sub-series designed by Jean-Paul Gaultier — a commercial collaboration that recruited the fashion designer to reimagine French cities through his own aesthetic. Lyon's designation as "la lumineuse" draws on the city's historical role in silk production, which by the 17th century made it the dominant textile center in Europe, and on the Fête des Lumières, the December light festival rooted in a 1643 vow made by city aldermen during a plague epidemic.
Billon at .333 fineness places this squarely in circulation-adjacent collector territory rather than investment silver.
