| Additional information |
Issued under France's "Trésors de la Numismatique" program, this piece was struck the year marking the 500th anniversary of the Mona Lisa's generally accepted start date — Leonardo began the portrait around 1503, though he reportedly carried it with him for years and may never have considered it finished. The Monnaie de Paris produced this in a strict limited mintage, making it one of the more aggressively collected issues of the series.
At 155.55 grams, this is a five-troy-ounce piece — a deliberate bullion-friendly specification that placed it alongside international collector-bullion issues of the period rather than purely commemorative territory.
