| Reverse description | A dynamic action scene inspired by the Largo Winch comic series fills the central field, depicting a figure astride a motorcycle in high-speed pursuit, rendered in finely detailed relief against a mirror-polished background. To the lower left, a four-wheel-drive vehicle is shown in pursuit, conveying a sense of movement and tension characteristic of the source graphic novel. The stylised 'W' monogram of the Largo Winch series is prominently placed at the top of the field above the scene. The issue year '2012' is inscribed in the lower exergue, flanked by small decorative ornaments. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Monnaie de Paris series celebrating Franco-Belgian comic book heroes, this piece was issued the same year a second Largo Winch film had recently finished its theatrical run in France — the timing was commercial, not coincidental. The series leaned heavily on the bande dessinée tradition that French mint authorities had been quietly monetizing since the mid-2000s.
.900 fine rather than the more common .925 used in most French collector silver of the period — a specification choice that consistently catches buyers off guard when they attempt alloy comparisons within the broader series.
