The "Coq Gaulois" gold series from Monnaie de Paris revived a symbol that had largely been dormant on French coinage since the Third Republic. The 2015 issue sits at the premium end of the annual bullion program, struck in .999 fine gold at a weight positioned deliberately between standard fractional sizes to discourage mass arbitrage while maintaining collector appeal.
Gadoury's Euro reference C856 confirms this as part of the official bullion coinage classification rather than the collector proof series — a distinction that affects both legal tender status and secondary market liquidity.
