| Additional information |
The laurel series from Monnaie de Paris draws on the institution's own history — the Paris mint has operated continuously since the Carolingian period, making it one of the oldest functioning mints in the world. The 1000-euro denomination places this firmly in collector-only territory, issued under French law permitting face values on bullion and high-relief pieces that bear no relationship to any circulating monetary reality.
