| Additional information |
Issued as part of Monnaie de Paris's ongoing licensed series commemorating Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's 1943 novella, this colorized piece draws on rights administered through the Succession Saint-Exupéry-d'Agay. The Little Prince franchise has proven remarkably durable for French commemorative programs — the IP has appeared across multiple years and denominations, making completionist collecting a deliberate institutional strategy rather than an accident of popularity.
The colorization was applied after striking, a process Monnaie de Paris has used extensively on collector issues since the mid-2000s. Mintages on these themed silver pieces are typically capped low and sold directly through the mint, meaning secondary market pricing tracks demand for the literary property as much as the metal.
