| Reverse description | A richly detailed aerial panoramic view of Paris rendered in intricate high-relief engraving. The Eiffel Tower rises prominently in the middle distance along the River Seine, flanked by the Grand Palais and Petit Palais in the foreground, while additional Haussmann-era landmarks and bridges populate the cityscape. A dramatic clouded sky occupies the upper left of the field, adding depth and atmosphere to the composition. The inscription PARIS appears in the upper portion of the field in serif lettering. The design is executed in the proof finish with exceptional sculptural depth, celebrating Paris as a city of historic and cultural significance. |

| Additional information |
Struck at the Paris Mint under a long-standing arrangement by which the Royal Mint contracts overflow proof production to foreign facilities, this piece carries the cornucopia privy mark that identifies its French origin — a detail that distinguishes it from otherwise identical London strikes and matters considerably to type collectors building complete sets by mint.
