| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse presents a dramatic aerial nocturnal view of the Eiffel Tower, rendered in high relief, with the structure's iconic latticed ironwork radiating outward toward the surrounding Parisian cityscape. The Tower's signature light beam sweeps across the field, evoking its celebrated nightly illumination. The inscription '130 ANS DE LA TOUR EIFFEL' commemorates the monument's 130th anniversary in 2019, while 'PARIS' and the national identifier 'RF' (République Française) appear highlighted within a stylised rendering of the Seine River. The composition blends architectural precision with an atmospheric, artistic treatment befitting a commemorative issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of the Monnaie de Paris "Monuments de France" series, this kilo piece commemorates the 130th anniversary of the Eiffel Tower's inauguration in 1889 — itself a structure built as a temporary exhibit entrance for the 1889 World's Fair and slated for demolition after 20 years. Its survival was owed almost entirely to its usefulness as a radio transmission tower, beginning with military communications experiments in the early 1900s. The French government requisitioned it during both World Wars for exactly that purpose.
