| Beschrijving keerzijde | A dynamic equestrian scene dominating the field depicts Napoleon Bonaparte mounted on a rearing horse, rendered in high relief after the style of Jacques-Louis David's iconic painting, his arm outstretched in a commanding gesture and cape billowing behind him. In the lower foreground, a group of infantry soldiers in Consular-era uniforms is shown in battle formation. To the upper left, an incuse representation of the original An 12 (Year 12) 1 Franc Germinal coin is depicted, showing Napoleon's laureate bust as Premier Consul with the legend '1 FRANC' and 'PREMIER CONSUL' around the wreath border. The denomination '50 Euro' is inscribed in bold lettering along the lower rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Franc Germinal" designation refers to the monetary reform enacted by Napoleon Bonaparte in April 1803 — Germinal being the seventh month of the French Republican calendar — which established a fixed silver-to-gold ratio and created the most stable French monetary unit of the nineteenth century. The franc germinal survived, largely intact, until the economic pressures of World War I forced France off the bimetallic standard in 1914.
This Monnaie de Paris issue belongs to their recurring commemorative program revisiting foundational moments in French monetary history. Mintage on these annual gold pieces is tightly controlled, typically in the low hundreds.
