Aanvullende informatie

Issued the year of the Concorde's definitive retirement anniversary, this piece belongs to Monnaie de Paris's "L'Aventure du Siècle" series commemorating Franco-British technological ambition. Air France and British Airways grounded their fleets in October 2003 following the July 2000 crash of Flight 4590 at Gonesse, which killed all 109 aboard plus four on the ground — an accident traced to a titanium strip shed by a Continental DC-10 on the same runway minutes earlier.

At 155.5 grams of .999 gold, these were produced in very limited quantities and marketed primarily to institutional collectors. Mintage figures for this denomination in the series rarely exceeded a few hundred pieces.
