| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of France's ongoing world cultures series, this coin was struck the year before France retired the franc entirely in favor of euro-denominated circulation coinage. The Monnaie de Paris produced several collector-oriented silver issues in 1998 specifically because the transition deadline was already fixed — the commercial window for franc-denominated commemoratives was closing fast.
Nefertiti's bust, sourced iconographically from the famous painted limestone original excavated by Ludwig Borchardt's German expedition at Amarna in 1912 and controversially retained in Berlin ever since, lent the series a reliably high-profile subject for international collector markets.
