| Additional information |
This piece belongs to the Monnaie de Paris "Trésors du monde" series, which licenses rights to reproduce specific artworks on legal tender — an arrangement that requires negotiation with holding institutions rather than simply the artist's estate. La Persistance de la mémoire has been held by MoMA since 1934, acquired just three years after Dalí painted it. The coin was issued under France's broader push to position commemorative gold as a collector vehicle distinct from bullion, with mintages kept deliberately low to sustain secondary-market premiums.
